I isolated myself entirely
because people never did want me

You’ve left me trapped in
Memories too vile to escape
I run and I run but you’re always
Inches away
Every time I think I’ve beat you you’re
Hands grip my frame and I scratch and I claw but you always pull me back
into your disgusting embrace

The darkness arises when no one is there to keep it away.

The sheep counted me
As I tried to sleep

I fell awake
Because my thoughts
Kept trying to think

Pills didn't help
They just made me weak

For insomnia came
And stole my dreams

Like a thief in the night
But the night stole me

It put me in a chair
And it tied me there

But I wasn't asleep

I was having a nightmare
And my sleep went walking

Then my imagination started talking
About how I could escape

But it was too late

The sheep became faint
As the count became great

And I missed work
Because I couldn't awake

Is my life worth it
That question stings me
it pains me
It's hard to cope
When no one is behind you
To say hey I got you
I don't have that
instead, I got the ones that stab you in the back
and watch you bleed
and laugh like it's funny

I wonder
How my life become the drug of hate
Hate that's hard to erase
It takes a toll upon me
So I created an isolated place
In my mind
Now you wanna open up the doors
well my doors not
Open it for what, so you can hurt me?
And blame me that you left me?
You should stop watching me
Couse, I won't open
See I chose this
But I'm not safe in there
Misery lives in here

I regret it, I let him in
I open up my doors so he could leave
But he never did
He's to settled in
My mind
Plays like he's kind
He's the kind that isolated me
Became a knife and stabbed me
All over my body until I can't move
My body bleeds like a faucet on high
I lie here lifeless

Put's me in place to either lie here
Let him win
Or put him back outside where he came from
So I can win
But for you to do that
You have to open the doors
Now the misery is talking
I don't know what to do anymore

Skin

I am covered in skin
Much like you are
Cells keeping all my veins and parts inside
The thin yet strong barrier between me and the world
And yet with all this skin
Not an inch of it belongs to me
Some is his
And his
And his
Some is for the media
And a little is for her
I feel their hands on me
Ripping me apart
Taking their shares
Until there is noting left
Nothing to hold the veins nor parts
And I come undone

If you don't heal what hurt you,

You'll bleed on people who didn't cut you.
