Cried out eyes Haunted by dreams Even when awake Inside I scream An echo through my mind Tormented, I weep The pain so excruciating The secrets I keep Darkness surrounds me Taking my breath away Somehow this life Has lead me astray My wrists bleed to just feel The blood covers the floor I have sewn them closed Continuing to fight this war Regrets have consumed me My heart cries in vain My mind is the enemy Thirteen million miles from sane This is the real me I have hidden so deep I have shed my skin I struggled so hard to keep Alone in the dark Depression has eaten me alive Anxiety its partner I don't think I'll survive Look past my facade I am broken within This cancer has forsaken me I am too weakened to win

Thirteen Million Miles From Sane
Cried out eyes Haunted by dreams Even when awake Inside I scream An echo through my mind Tormented, I weep The pain so excruciating The secrets I keep Darkness surrounds me Taking my breath away Somehow this life Has lead me astray My wrists bleed to just feel The blood covers the floor I have sewn them closed Continuing to fight this war Regrets have consumed me My heart cries in vain My mind is the enemy Thirteen million miles from sane This is the real me I have hidden so deep I have shed my skin I struggled so hard to keep Alone in the dark Depression has eaten me alive Anxiety its partner I don't think I'll survive Look past my facade I am broken within This cancer has forsaken me I am too weakened to win
