sad eyes, sadly things, sadly days, sadly world, sadly alive.
please go to hell, don't fuck me up.
that's enough, all over now.
don't pushing me, you know i need a new live.
or dead mind.
i can't be endure that my soul has really gone.
i want it back.
i don't want to become a girl without a soul.
i'm so tired...
i've deeply worried and anxious for this,
every day when i woke up till i was go to bed.
