All I want is to die without pain

Every day I breathe
With every breath of pain
When all I want right now
Is to die without pain
With each day the grave draws nearer
No matter where I turn,
Always alone
I spoke, screamed and cried my desire
And yet no one hears
So now I lay me down to sleep
Trying to forget my mail
My God, can you hear my request
And take me in my sleep
To all those in the world
Who choose not to hear, not to see
That’s okay, I understand.
After all, I was the only one with SED*.
Why you should understand
I know how rare I am

All I want is a painless death

Each and every day I breathe
When all I want right now
Is to die a painless death
With each day the grave draws nearer
For no matter where l turn, I’m always all alone
I’ve talked; I’ve screamed and cried my wish
And yet nobody seems to hear
So now I lay me down to sleep
To try to forget the pain
God won’t you head my wish
And take me while I sleep
To all of you out there
Who chose not to see, not to hear
It’s ok, I understand
After all I was just the one with EDS*
Why should you understand
I know how rare I am!
