The voices rage war inside my head
Clawing,cutting,carving
Building up walls, and lighting fires
As everything turns into ash.Eyes barred and blinded
Tears threatening to spill at any moment
Mouth glued shut
While my tongue is twisting and turningConsumed with the fear of the unknown
Thoughts holding me down, always
Mindless actions followed by empty words
Constantly unsure of what followsSmiles painted on
Fake laughter rings from room to room
Reality consumed by lies
Truths banished to another landTrapped by the walls of my mind
Branded by the tongue of others
Piercing stares drag me behind
Digging into me, making me feel like I'm being hungThe potato chips in my hand drop
As fingers crawl down my throat
All eyes fall to the scale
While my heart collapses on the floorThe beast inside me roars
My body in a constant fight with my mind
Neither relinquishing control
Only the damage can be seenSlowly I fade away
Unconsciously slipping into the abyss
Locking all that I know behind the red door of my mind
Trapping everything inside a bottleSurrounded by fake people giving fake love
As dreams fade out faster than the speed of light
While hope is shredded into nothing
And time just passes us byHumans replaced with bodies of wire
Hearts turn to stone
Hands cuffed and confined
Memories faded and fakedThe voices rage war inside my head
Clawing, cutting, and carving
Building up wallsz and lighting fires
As everything turns into ashBlurring lines surround me
My reflection unrecognizable
An overwhelming shadow follows
As the ground cracks beneath meUnsure of who to be
Pulled in all directions
Sitting on the edge
Staring into the eye of the hurricaneWondering whether everything is truly okay
Or if it's just as shaken with insecurity
Wondering if I'm truly okay
Or if maybe I'm just trying to pull through like everyone elseIs this how it feels like to drown
To be so consumed with all that's filling your insides
So lost in the moment, unable to grab hold of anything
Just praying for anything to pull you out
