I'm falling deeper into the depths of depression

I try to climb back up, but there's something holding me back

I try to scream, but my throat runs dry

I'm falling into the clutches of insanity

These scars, I don't remember how they got here

I try to escape, but something's pulling me back

I try to run, but my legs give out

I'm drowning in my own insecurities

I look in the mirror and what I see disgusts me

I try to get out, but it's dragging me down

I try to swim, but there are monsters all around

My anxiety is dragging me down

I try to get up, but this fear weighs a million pounds

I try to fight, but it's pinning me down

I'm dying alone in my own despair

I try to find someone who will actually care

I try to pull through, but in the end what can I do?

I'm being held captive by my past

I try to forget, but it's always there

I try to run, but it's way too fast

I'm falling apart, but they can't even see

Wouldn't you like to know what it's like to be me?
