there's this thing in my mind,

like a tumour it grows.

it feeds on negativity,

expanding 'til it takes over

"it's not cancer" they say

but then why do i feel like i'm dying

"you can get better" they say

but  i've already been trying since forever.


there's this thing in my mind,

like a tumour it grows.

it numbs all feeling,

shutting me down as if i have an off button

"you just have to try" they say

but i thought it would be easier

"it won't last" they say

but it's already been a lifetime


there's this thing in my mind,

like a tumour ,

it grows
