Words between the walls,
echoing out my name.
Reminding me of all,
the things that bring me shame.
I fight to fall asleep,
I try to clear my brain.
But then I start to weep,
when the walls call out my name.
I cover up my ears,
and start to sing real loud.
But to the words between the walls,
I'm easy to be found.
When the words seem to stop,
I slowly uncover my ears.
I open up my eyes,
and before me are all my fears.
My heart starts to race,
the world starts to spin.
I cover up my face,
and try to breathe again.
I argue with myself,
right inside my head.
The same old fight,
a different day instead.
I take a deep breath,
and try to clear my brain.
It doesn't really work,
nothing seems to change.
The words between the walls,
never truly fade.
