In my mind I'm in the corner,
In my mind I'm in the closet.
In my mind I'm six feet under,
In my mind this is it.
I sit and laugh and play,
When all I hear is screaming.
The thoughts are loud,
The urges are louder,
Theres never time for day,
In this mind I call my home,
Every happy things ran away.
I pretend it's okay that I'm hurt,
I pretend every day that I'm fine,
But each waking moment
The thoughts are loud
And the urges are louder.
I promised people I'd be here,
I promised people I'd care,
But my eyes have run dry
And my heart is still sobbing
And I feel like no one is there.
I want to give up but I promised you.
I want to leave but people would follow.
But in my mind I'm in the corner,
In my mind I'm in the closet.
I'm my mind I'm six feet under,
I'm my mind this is it.
