My heart is hammering in my chest Almost as If It's trying to escape my ****** prison I'm panting forcing the air in and out of my lungs Faster And faster And faster Until I can't breath anymore I'm choking on air I'm suffocating Clawing at my throat Desperately gasping for oxygen I can't stop Although the muscles in my legs are screaming for me to halt My legs won't carry me fast enough Away from that horrid thing in the mirror Lights Cars And shop windows pass by in a blur My legs finally give out and I collapse on the ground I look into a puddle only to meet the gaze of the one I tried so hard to escape from

The not so great escape
My heart is hammering in my chest Almost as If It's trying to escape my ****** prison I'm panting forcing the air in and out of my lungs Faster And faster And faster Until I can't breath anymore I'm choking on air I'm suffocating Clawing at my throat Desperately gasping for oxygen I can't stop Although the muscles in my legs are screaming for me to halt My legs won't carry me fast enough Away from that horrid thing in the mirror Lights Cars And shop windows pass by in a blur My legs finally give out and I collapse on the ground I look into a puddle only to meet the gaze of the one I tried so hard to escape from
