voices
They speak to me
When I am alone;
They tell me about you.
Now that I know you, they know you too,
And they will never let you stay.
They hate you.
They flaunt your flaws,
Force my eyes open
And make me see.
They leave me exposed
To the heat of your words
And the coldest of your ways.
They make me hate you.
voices
I squeeze my eyes shut
And they slither through my mind,
Coiling around my senses.
They hate me
Rustling in the darkest corners,
I hear them.
They whisper in my ear,
Feeding my fears,
And they make me hate me.
i try to shake them off
try to keep myself awake
i can't let them hiss at me
make me despise everything
But they persist.
They want me to fail,
And so I want to fail.
They want me to fall,
And now I'm falling.
i turn up the sounds
to try and drown them out
but i can't stop them!
...they hate me
and now i hate myself too
voices
in the darkness i tie knots
and i tie them tight
i loops loops and i loops them right*
And the voices have won.
