Stuck in the shell I can't shed
Help me, I'm locked in my head
No one can hear me scream, not even plead
Cutting my arms, watching them bleed
I can't take much more, someone end this pain
Ready to take a bullet to the brain
It too much to bare, just let it end
I beg and cry, but the message doesn't send
Louder and louder, but no one can hear me scream
Too much pain, too much, please is this just a dream
No one can help me now, I'm all alone
They can't hear my painful tone
Someone please, hear my cries
I yell and yell, but no one tries
I guess no one cares, no one is listening
My tears roll down glistening
I'll shut up and put on a smile
I'll walk a broken glass mile
Just know the smile I wear is to hide
I am eternally broken inside

Artists minds
Have fragile souls
The delicate way
We pen our words
Shows our vulnerability
We bare our scars
Triumphs
Hopes and dreams
To heal the pain
Of our wounded hearts
We must create
For our own understanding
Self-discovery
To process the turmoil
And calm our fears and anxiety
Tattooing our thoughts
On our readers minds
Letting each person who reads
Carry a piece of the pain with them
Until there is none left

Denial.
Slips like smooth ice
Into a delicate mind
Freezes over the wound
Numbs the pain
Til it's only dull and
You can forget
Everything that hurts,
Just for a moment
Let's play pretend
Paint a freezeframe
Of grey emotions
It feels better than
Red and blue.

I talk about everything
and yet nothing
I waste my time
searching my mind
for something to say
something that has
a meaning to me

I find myself alone
even with you here
I try to hide my fear
anytime your near
but my time is running out
cause my mind is burning out
I have to tell you now
before I die upon this ground

There is not much left
my sanity has gone
I fight for what's left
but all time is gone
I hear all the whispers
they go and go
never giving time
to sit and think
to ponder why
I want to die

My mind long gone
My body forgotten
But who cares anymore
You see me cry
You don't wonder why
Because I lie
Straight to your face
I know I'm a disgrace
But no one cares
About
me

My friend, why do you cry?
why do you want to die?
my friend
we share three names
My love, when do you cry
why don't you want to die?
my love
We share no names
My people, do you cry?
why do we all die?
my people
I know none of you
And I avoid all of you
cause we're all broken
in some
way

Figure me out
Try to learn how
I live with this brain
This brain full of pain
But it's so hard
Hard to explain
So just try to learn
Without my brain
Helping you on your
way

depression is my obsession
I have to beat this oppression
On my mind
Because it's not binding
Life's not always winding
Down
But all I'm finding
Are demons teeming
Inside my soul
They won't let go
Of my existence
They live of persistence
And I keep fighting for control
I should stop resisting
As you know
But all I want is control
But they won't
Let
Go
