when in my head i go insane;
when thoughts are tangled, lost in blame;
when paranoia's boiling blood;
when I consider all ways out;
when I can trust what isn't real;
when smallest thing is a big deal;
when i feel like the world is crushing;
collapsing right under my feet;
when desperation's gripping tightly
me by the throat and i lose sleep;
when overthinking cant be stopped;
and of all sanity and clarity im robbed;
when pain inside's too much to bear
and my hopes turn into despear
he understands, he doesn't mind
he walks right by me, not behind;
he knows that in my teary eyes
hide years of love and sacrifice;
he tells me what i need to hear
to win this war against my fear;
he understands, he doesn't mind;
when sun's too bright but i need light
when world's unfair - he's still so kind;
he says he loves me when i seem
be drowning in my own dark beam;
he talks about me, how he's keen;
alas
he lives inside my dream.

Passion runs deep,
inside of us all,
Some they embrace it,
others they fall.
Mainly through ignorance,
despear , no believe ,
If your not encouraged, then what's  to achieve?
People will blossom not from with in them,  
It comes from support, the people around them.
In the snow my legs tremble
My mind whispers
In the ocean my body floats
Yet my mind still whispers

My hand near a fire reacts instantly
My mind whispers
In the heat of the desert my pores exhale
Yet my mind still whispers

Floating in the vacuum of space
My mind whispers
In the presence of life
My mind still whispers

Stability, an illusion of happiness
Stable, sinks in despear
Stability eludes our purpose of existence
My mind still whispers,  stability ponders
