Can you sleep? I can’t sleep.
This fog, this dust,
has decomposed a face to rust.
I hide in these walls
as my sanity drops, my sanity falls.
You’re not to blame
for keeping me the same.
Let the paranoia in,
for another night of hell to begin.
A lesson never learned,
two hearts withheld and burned.
I’m the fabrication of my mind,
the keys of which you’ll never find.
Consciousness declined —
look into my mind.
Don’t be scared of what you see.
Yes, trust me, my dear, this is me.
Labyrinths, mazes, and dreams,
watch the abhorrent stitches come apart at the seams.
These walls start to push me down.
Save yourself, or you will surely drown.
Don’t think these walls won’t get you too,
the demons in me — the ones you subdue.
Voices running through my head,
one day soon, surely I’ll be in my head.
The glass breaks, fingers burned,
a one-way ticket to hell, well earned.
The mind apart, it splits in two,
the melancholy, the anger that grew.
I wish I was alive so I could see
the kind of man that I would be.
I tried to sleep, I tried.
A map to solace that you’ll never find.
You need to get up, you need to hide
from your own ******* mind.
I drown myself so I can’t see.
Break these chains and set yourself free.
This ocean doesn’t end —
a struggling body made to bend.
You’ll never leave.
You’ll never leave.
