Can I be ignorant?
Is that okay?
Can I look past my problems like
The number of a page?
I feel so worthless
That I'm trapped all alone
And I'm being haunted
By my thoughts unknown
Surrounded by a storm
Which ends with doom
Fell without warning
A constant loom
My mentality
Went out of whack
My life was a train
That ran off track
No matter what I say
And forget the actions I do
This battle I cannot win
I'm cursed to always lose
The problems pile up
The air I breath, allotted
The walls close in
God, I'm claustrophobic
Can you look in my eyes
And say I'm lying?
Can you tell from my smile
I go to sleep crying?
I don't have the guts
To say everything
That's on my mind
Pushed away are my feelings
All day, all night
This monster roams
How could I not understand?
Once a foreigner
It's the king of my land
I did what I could
To win control
Though, you can see
That wasn't so
Do I need help
A psychologist
Or is it too late
Now I'm faded to mist?
Give me substance
Make me whole
To be normal
Is my goal
Without dying
I wanna see the light
I keep trying
With all my might
My problems rose as master
I now a slave
Can someone help
Make me brave?
Lend me a hand
Instead of shoving me aside
I won't go far
Without a guide
In my life
I'm held down
Buried as I breathe
6 feet underground
Can't I stay ignorant
To keep things simple
Or will I always be
Emotionally crippled?
