They scream and claw
Never knowing if the chains will hold

Every cut still raw
They're always trying to take control

Pushing them back into their cells
I paint on a smile

With the ringing of bells
School sounds like a trial

Each step was taken with care
One foot in front of the other

It feels like there's no air
But I can't call mother

I try to scream
Hoping that everyone would just stop talking

My mind an acid stream
Demons telling me everyone's mocking

But my mind holds me back
If I don't speak, they'll never know the pain

Everythings has gone black
Why do they keep screaming in my brain

Just one more hour
Try to stop daydreaming

Life's too sour
Stopping myself from screaming

Grades all A's
Room is all clean

Maybe this is a phase
My thoughts worse than the horror movie on the screen

No one knows
Just how loud the demons have been

My trust goes
But not what I have seen
