can you hear us?
a little soft now.
i know you can hear me,
and everything we discuss.

no, don't try to ignore us now,
it's no use, we're in your head
you must accept and do nothing but allow

say hello my dear, we are here to stay.
welcome us into the depths of your mind.
we promise to keep the good thoughts at bay.
once we're done here, there'll be nothing left to find.

quickly, run.
run before we eat you alive.
but what are you running from?
you might accidentally run into our knives.

loudly, scream.
scream all you want.
but no one will hear you as we haunt.

smart move, telling others your problems.
but deep down you believe
that you are just curious
and rather watch you bleed.

unfortunately my dear, this is not a dream.
your insanity is being secured at the seam.

there is no way out
you cant run away from whats in your head.
we will mute your scream is you try to shout.

your time is coming to a close
let the voice get the best of you
let us say they all hate you, which you already knew.
there is nothing else you can do.

nothing but place the barrel next to your head.
down each gel capsule until you are dead.
throw yourself under the water
slash your wrist so it looks like manslaughter.
inch towards closer to the edge of the ledge.
jump before they have enough time to wedge,
wedge that one final heartbreaking insult.
and for the last time, the voices saying, "its all your fault."
