I feel like I'm drowning,
The air in my lungs isn't flowing,
I can't breathe, am I dying?
My mind won't stop, as I'm lying,
Awake, tossing and turning,
My chest is on fire, burning,
The tears won't stop running in streams,
I don't know why the waterfalls chase away my dreams,
The nightmares taunt me constantly,
Like vivid memories, tormented, honestly?
My vision was blinded, blurred,
Darkness overwhelmed, overtaken, uncleared,
My head is spinning around, dizziness,
My mind glazed over, ablaze, fuzziness,
These thoughts racing, crossing over jitters,
I stare at myself, eyes shining like stars, glitters,
There is no more I can give, I'm empty,
But the world is hungry for more and more, plenty,
I keep giving, till there's none left to bleed,
But you keep taking and taking, with so much greed,
I can't do it no more, I can't bleed anymore,
I can't keep on with the tormented pain down to my core,
I can't be this broken ball of fire and ice,
I can't keep going with these terrible nightmare strikes,
I can't stop this crying, it's driving me to madness,
I can't stay so upset, so insane, so much sadness,
I can't take the ache in my chest, yearning,
I can't sleep, nothing at all, just tossing and turning,
I can't stop thinking, I can't stop the breach,
I'm drowning doctor, I can't love myself, I can't breathe.
