Beg
Everything in me is screaming
BEG
SCREAM
CLAW
DON'T LET GO

But this silence isn't just effecting my voice
Its effecting my soul

Everything in me is screaming
CRY
SCREAM
HIT
KICK
BREAK EVERYTHING
or god forbid just yourself

But this inability to move isn't just effecting my limbs
Its sunk deep into my bones

Everything in me is screaming
SURVIVE
FIGHT
LIVE

But nowhere to go isn't just words
Its the reality of my world

Everything in me whispering
Give me relief
Give me release
Set my mind free
From this body

Everything in me begging
Cut me
Burn me
Hurt me
Desolate me
Desicrate me
Break my bones
And leave me out in the cold

This life isn't mine
It never was
It doesn't belong to me
So set it free
And let it drift to someone else
In need
Who actually has a place to go
A future with a home
