She closes her eyes
And turns her face to the sky
A tear falls down her cheek,
And she scolds herself for being so weak

Her monsters are alive
And screaming inside
She wants her pain to end
She wants a true, loving friend

An angel
Seeking chaos
And a demon
Seeking peace

They break her mind
She's dying inside
Her silent screams
Her depression so extreme

She's quiet all the time
A prisoner to her mind
A dark, depressing pit
Her life's turned to shit

Nobody notices the scars
Crisscrossing her arms
They don't notice her tears
Examples of her fears

An angel
Seeking chaos
A demon
Seeking peace

They break her mind
She's dying inside
Her silent screams
Her depression so extreme

One day she's not at school
Everyone thinks she's a fool
But what the teacher hides
Is that she took her life

She wrote to everyone
"What's done is done
I couldn't take the pain
I had nothing to gain"

An angel
Seeking chaos
A demon
Seeking peace

They broke her mind
She died inside
Her silent screams
Her depression was so extreme

"I know you don't care
But I still want to share
I was all alone
Even in my own home

"Just the shy kid
With nothing to win
The voices in my head
Filled me with dread"

An angel
Seeking chaos
A demon
Seeking peace

They broke her mind
She died inside
Her silent screams
Her depression was so extreme

"I cut my skin
To escape this prison
I didn't eat
Because I felt so weak

"I'm finally free
From everybody
Who lead me to this
I'm not to be missed"

An angel
Seeking chaos
A demon
Seeking peace

They broke her mind
She died inside
Her silent screams
Her depression was so extreme

The day is spent in grief
For a life that was so brief
As a boy opens his lock
He finds something that gives him a shock

"I know your pain
I know your tears are like the rain
I prayed for you
Even if you didn't want me to"

An angel
Seeking chaos
A demon
Seeking peace

They broke her mind
She died inside
Her silent screams
Her depression was so extreme

"If you decide to leave
Tell them not to grieve
I'm waiting for you
And I miss you

"Stay strong
You won't have to wait long
I'm watching over you
Keeping you safe in everything you do"

An angel
Seeking chaos
A demon
Seeking peace

They break his mind
He's dying inside
His silent screams
His depression so extreme

As he goes to sleep that night
He reminds himself to continue to fight
He closes his eyes
And enters his mind

He lets out a sigh
And looks at his thighs
Covered in scars
And hears her from afar

"An angel
Seeking chaos
A demon
Seeking peace

"They break my mind
I'm dying inside
My silent screams
My depression so extreme..."
