1-800-273-8255 Lyrics

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be alive, I don't wanna be alive
I just wanna die today, I just wanna die

[Verse]
Words don't even work no more
Angel and some demon sitting at my door
Living or just breathing, and I'm still not sure
Anxiety, depression aiming at my core
And I just swing from the ceiling, overflowing from the top
Twenty minutes contemplating knowing I'ma drop
Pills staring at me, asking me to pop
Praying to the lord, and he asking me to stop
'Cause I feel it in my blood, blood's rushing through me
But seeing blood flowin' ain't nothing to me
I been crying out for help but you ain't fucking with me
And that's another reason why life ain't nothing to me
But now I gotta stay focused, I'm a fighter, nigga, I know
Got a couple people looking to me like they idol
'Cause even on my lowest days I'm shitting on my rivals
But how I'm supposed to keep 'em mad being suicidal?

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been on the low, I been taking my time
I feel like I'm out of my mind
I feel like my life ain't mine (Who can relate?)
I've been on the low, I been taking my time
I feel like I'm out of my mind
I feel like my life ain't mine
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be alive, I don't wanna be alive
I just wanna die today, I just wanna die
I don't wanna be alive, I don't wanna be alive
I just wanna die today, I just wanna die

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
