Overdosed on optimism
rock bottom reality syndrome
self-diagnosed depression
can’t separate life from delusions
losing touch with everything I ever was
some things for the better and others for worse

who knew that how I dealt with the world
would leave me feeling this cold

there’s nothing wrong with saying
real life can be depressing
I’m all about accepting the things I can’t control
got a list of all the things I hate about the world
keeps getting longer every year

I took some time
to realize the way I’ve been
holding back for the sake of nothing
if happiness is a moving target
my steady aim will be my honesty

I’ve drawn a line
I’ve compromised
no one to blame
just a fear of dealing with myself

No I won’t lie
about just how far I’ve been down
when you reach this point
there’s no return, you have to decide
