Holding on

I'm falling asleep, my eyes flutter and the darkness covers my sight
I'm trying to stay awake with all my might

Remembering the assignment that needs to be done overnight
My thoughts in my head I try to fight
All I see is darkness overclouding my eyes

Everybody is telling me what to do
How to live how to be
My heart feels heavy my head feels heavy I cannot move
Im so afraid of where I'm headed
I've lost directions
I can't find my way back
Ive lost all perception
Cannot trace my steps

What scares me the most is that no tears are present
Even my emotions have given up on this adolescent
Someone please save me
Someone please help me
I don't think I'll be able to hold on any longer
I'm weaker now not stronger
