I feel fear creeping on me When the lights go out And my eyes close My thoughts go buzzing The kind I don’t wanna think It’s tough when I close my eyes I just want to rest and be at peace But the fear and doubt comes back again I use the blade and pour out my pain I feel the tears come again Curse myself for not controlling myself I tell my depression to leave me But I hear the voices in my head and I hear laughter They say I’ll never be anything Should just listen and **** myself But I won't listen I refuse to listen
