brush it off

Instilling fear like a monster I retreat to my own head.
Unwilling to hear I wipe the tears that I shed.
Going blind-I find I'd be better off dead.

This world I've created is nothing but a fantasy.
The morals I've debated are nothing but dead to me.
So why, do I continue to defy in my mind all the signs right behind I cannot find, any meaning I want to cry I want to die.

Oh well, I'll just take a deep sigh;
suck it up and brush it off.

i don't like this line - maybe shorten it and reword it and it will be better :

So why, do I continue to defy in my mind all the signs right behind I cannot find, any meaning I want to cry I want to die.

...

but I do like your ending. life goes on. you should too.

and your beginning is nice. i like how you talk about the world you've created in your head.

I really like it, but it seems really sad.

I really like it! its something I would read when I've had a horrible day... or year. It just makes we want to get up, wash it away, and live again.
