When ever I try to speak
Use my voice
The knot in the back of my throat grows
Feels like an exorcism is taking place
Like somethingโ€™s trapped in my chest
Another entity
Something other then my heartbeat
I canโ€™t get the words out
I canโ€™t fight these demons alone
But with every thought of you
The noose grows tighter
What am I to do
Thereโ€™s no me without you
But I have no voice to use
