Chains that never silent

This hell is real

Chains rattle as I walk through the fire

The walls enclosed around the mind

You have no voice nothing comes out

Nothing to say no way to put into words

Pulling in a hundred directions

This maze there is no way out

It has no exit sign for the weak

The mind is a dangerous disastrous welfare

Bring me to my knees over and over again

We plead for a way out

A way to feel

Anything but the torment inside

Or outside we cannot deny

Imaginary physical pain is real life battle in itself

These veins chained locked up for a lifetime

Gasping for a breath inside these lies

Air we cannot gather in sight

The devil forever holds your soul

It's true what they say when you sell your soul

To the devil...

There's no way out no way of escaping

What once was pure innocence

I wish it to be a lie every waking day

The cards don't just change when u gamble

The judge doesn't sleep when your in denial

The ghost forever haunts the wellbeing

The girl who wanted to die a way out

It's a suffering battle

Voices don't shut up for the weak

For the brain that manic is more truer than not

Let's be honest

These chains forever lock inside words that cannot come out

It may be better that way

In the end

Who do we truly need to be anyways

Smoke in the hallway and the lights won't flicker

Footsteps echo but no one is coming

Every door I open leads back to the same room

Same mirror same face same chains getting tighter

I learned to count the cracks in the ceiling

Learned to name every ghost that sleeps in the walls

They know my middle name they know my weak spot

They whisper when the night gets heavy

Learned to leave the light on for the girl I was before

Learned that surviving ain't pretty it is loud and messy

Damaged doesn't fix broken

Damage lets you know your alive against your will

On the daily

Right

Let's be honest

It's a one day at a time gamble

Nothing more

Forever counting up or down

Whichever makes the most sense

It will forever be the judge

Who are you judging you monster

It's me I'm my only judge

The ghost can haunt me for a lifetime

Make a friend of it they won't know what to do next

The girl realized all the voices had a voice after all

She stopped running from the noise in the attic

Started answering back with a hammer in her hand

You can scream at the top of your lunges

Shut the fuck up

It's my time

My time to shine

I am at war on the daily

But never once looked back at what's in the past

I carry the fire I walked through inside my chest now

Not to burn me down but to light the exit I carved myself

With shaking hands with borrowed breath

Just breathe

Just breathe

Just breathe till the chains go quiet

Just breathe till the ghost learns your name
