I'm slowly destroying my own self. This disease is eating me alive While I watch from behind my eyes. Each day I try and pretend That I'm not angry Or scared out of my mind. I'm a brain trapped in a broken body With no way out And no way to fix what's broken. All I can do is hope to stop the disease In its tracks And hope I don't get worse. But there is no getting better.
