What’s the point?
What’s the point in bearing with all of the troubles that we have during our lives?
With all of the wars and battles that kill thousands of peoples’ lives, but when it comes down to the choice to end it all or not, they ask you to stay alive because your “important.”
What’s the point in dealing with all of the criticism that we receive because all of the other people don’t believe in our beliefs?
And we all know that the end of the world is truly near, but we’re too scared to admit that all of our work will be destroyed.
And whether that day will come in a lifetime or not, death is inevitable and no one will remember your hard work.
All of the nights you stayed awake to finish that project for school and all of the time you spent working just so that you could have food.
And for what?
We all know that you’re too scared to admit that living another day of our lives is a lot more painful than dying.
So why do we do it?
Why do we put ourselves through so much pain and suffering just because we need to live another day, waiting for absolutely nothing?
Why do we fill our lives with lies by saying that we are going to save the planet, but our mere existence is destroying it?
Why is it so important for one out of the billions of people on Earth to stay alive?
Because of greed?
Just to gain that satisfaction of saying that you saved someone’s life when you’re actually putting them through more pain than you can imagine?
What’s the point?

  • What about sunrise
    What about rain
    What about all the things
    That you said we were to gain…
    What about killing fields
    Is there a time
    What about all the things
    That you said was yours and mine…
    Did you ever stop to notice
    All the blood we’ve shed before
    Did you ever stop to notice
    The crying Earth the weeping shores?

  • I’m completely honest here.

    On the person who says you’re important: Yes, this kind of person is most likely someone who doesn’t even know the FEELING of depression. I don’t know how that’s possible, but I know some people who are that way. Narcissists? Psychopaths? Kids?? I wish people would have actual, real reasons on why they care about them, rather than a few sentences.

    But I’m guessing that you’re urging suicidal people to kill themselves, on the “everything doesn’t really matter” trope. The only way extremely suicidal people don’t kill themselves is probably due to the fear of dying. Haven’t you heard of the failed shotgun suicide? Oof, not good. Hanging isn’t as romantic as you thought, either. Poison? Hope you have a weak gag reflex, it’s going to feel like acid going down anyway. Vehicle? … I’m not even going to start on that one. Of course, the shock will numb the pain if it’s by an extreme force. But hey, survival instinct is a crazy thing.
