I lay here on my lifeless bed
tormented by my demons
all i hear are voices in my head
I'm a slave to my own thoughts
and a victim to depression
all I feel is neglect
It is how Toronto was born
The rejection that kept coming my way
I'm haunted by it all night, I'm torn
I am weak
I fight a battle constantly in my own body
and I am on a losing streak
This pain. I've become numb to it
But I feel like I'm forever falling
I'm descending into a bottomless pit
I fall deeper and deeper and realize
Its not real
My mind was showing me lies
It was a trick
My mind is my enemy
It is so twisted and sick
My mind is envious of my happiness
It always finds a way to torment me
My life is just a mess
It's 4 a.m
I haven't shut my eyes
It really is a shame
I look to the ceiling and await my next punishment
I wait anxious
For my souls diminishment
