Lonely Place

Late night, during the midnight hour

I sit, crying alone in the shower

Trapped in this lonely place

With these memories I can’t erase

All this anxiety taking over my brain

Is this what it feels like to go insane

Daylight comes and I feel normal again

Was it a nightmare, was it all pretend

Will this feeling come back at all

Or is it my demons that only return at night fall

Anxiety running through my veins

Something’s gotta give, something’s gotta change

My heart feels like it’s gonna break through my chest

Somebody help me put my demons to rest

This lonely place is getting old

I just need to escape this threshold

The sun is going down again

I feel the panic kicking in

A tingling feeling runs through my skin

I hear them whisper “let me in”

The anxiety runs through my veins

I know I’ll never escape these chains

My heart feels like it’s gonna break through my chest

Tonight’s the night I’ll put my demons to rest

This lonely place is getting old

It’s time for me to escape this threshold

This lonely place is getting old

Demons roaming uncontrolled

Morning comes and I’m okay

If only the sunlight lasted longer then the day
