A beleaguered mind behind placid eyes This stoic facade is my disguise There's a pain I cannot fully verbalize Impossible to rationalize or make you realize My emotions run deep, that much is true They are the reason for my heart's grand coup Its fighting my mind, making me blind Makes me want to run scared of an attack from behind It consumes my thoughts and fuels my fears Its a battle I feel I'm losing and it brings me to tears I feel the loss of control taking a hold over me And its my darkest thoughts that say they'll set me free Make me free? I want to believe Because after it all who would really miss me? Nobody knows of my pain, driving me insane Spreading like cancer throughout my brain I try to reach for help but the doors keep closing Its a living night terror and this world is a show screen There's no wake up or brake up from this terror existing My thoughts told me how to end it - drop from a building Kiss that pavement, make a statement, go out nice and quick Because dealing with my problems makes me always feel sick My head's always in the toilet I'm a walking disappointment I'm so afraid to face myself, I missed my psychiatrist appointments
From a much different time, which felt so long ago, yet really wasn't so.
