May 2014
I can feel it in my bones
Like a lost soul calling out
Like a plea
Can you sense the danger
In yearning for the future
But you shred my dreams into pieces
You’re stealing all my air, I can’t breathe

Please bring me from this state
I can’t take it any longer
I can’t stand this pressure
I feel like this is torture
A hundred thousands weights upon my shoulders
And you can see my silent screams
But all you do is stare at me
Who else could you be besides
The devil inside of me…
Someone please save me.

I will grow stronger this time
Never will I fade again
Don’t hurt me
This fear won’t hold me back
I want to rely on you
But how can I even trust myself
When my ignorance speaks, for itself

Please bring me from this state
I can’t take it any longer
I can’t stand this pressure
I feel like this is torture
A hundred thousands weights upon my shoulders
And you can see my silent screams
But all you do is stare at me
Who else could you be besides
The devil inside of me…
Someone please save me.

Break down these walls
Build them up again
The whole world is watching
I feel so exposed to all the stares
Am I going insane?
Can you hear them speaking
In a whisper like this is
Nothing but a secret

Please bring me from this state
I know you see my silent screams
All you do is stare and wave at me
Who else could you be besides
The devil inside of me…
You want my torture to be never ending.
Someone please save me.

Who else could you be besides
The devil inside of me.
Someone please save me.
Save me.
