"Let me out", I screamed
Trapped like a wild animal
In what once felt like a dream

What am I to you?
A soulless body you can use?
Please, let me out!

I don't know what else to do
I love you but I'm no longer me
I'm a shattered fragmentation of
Faded emotions, collapsing with each other, in a endless dreadful cry

I've long sunk into the pits of hell
I've been burning for a while now
While you stay there and pretend like it's nothing
"You'll be fine, don't be a drama queen"
I'm sorry if my lungs have failed me and my head has voices whispering for me to end it now
I'm sorry if I can't be enough for to praise about
I'm sorry I'm this utterly broken attempt of a person
But I beg you
Please

let me out
