Melancholy Fever

Can we slow it down 
I don't think I'll be around 
This ghost town is slowly eating at me
The flowers don't grow right anymore

Do you love me or am I desperate to die alone
I got a pack of squares and a rod to my brain
My trigger finger is feeling happy again
Am I too close to caving in for your comfort

I was so depressed and hopeless
You still didn't come to save me
I was a hostage to my mind
You're not making it easy to say I wasn't

I've never been single for this long
There is this tingle in my brain telling me I'm better off dead
What's this line too depressed for your kingdom of joy
Am I too close to caving in for your comfort

I was so depressed and hopeless
You still didn't come to save me 
I was a hostage to my mind
You're not making it easy to say I wasn't

Imagine me at 22 self-harming every night
I was a broken mess and you left me in the lights 
Fighting my way out of this mindset
I was trying to find bright side 
To the story but there wasn't one

You could come back at anytime
Kill me and I'd apologize to you
I don't want to live forever I want to die young
Without there is only melancholy fever
Am I too close to caving in for your comfort

I'm depressed and hopeless waiting for you
Could you still come back and save me
I'm was a hostage to my mind
Here's my heart if you want it it's kind of broken
But it will always love you

Heartbreaking sentiment. A broken heart can always heal...it just takes time!?
