[Intro]
[low vocal register into screamed]
As the war in my brain rages on
All I can hear is the,
Screaming in my head
All I can feel is,
The sadness pulsing through my veins
And I’m drowning as,
The darkness pouring over me
At some point something has to give,
Because these intrusive thoughts
Are starting to tear out of my skin!
[Verse 1]
Growing up I never fit in
The black sheep, the misfit with no friends
Plagued with all this depression
I’ve always hated myself
and the chemical imbalance,
Always starting something, then another, then I stop just to forget,
Every thought racing at the same time
Crashing through my brain, it hurts just to think
And I just can’t focus!
ADHD,
blessing and a curse sometimes I just want it all to end.
[Pre-Chorus]
No one has ever saved enough to pay attention
Forever alone with no one to understand
Every laugh feels like a costume
With my mask I’ll smile till the end
But Underneath I cry cus,
Every day is a reminder of all my failures
[screaming]
So hard to keep these emotions in check
I’m Always too loud,
Too happy, Too sad,
too excited or Too mad,
I’ll Always be too much for any one to want to handle.
[Chorus]
I just want out of my own head
Just a fix that doesn’t feel like death
Wish everyone knew what’s in my head
All the love and peace I want to give,
Then they’d be more compassionate
Most days I feel half-dead
Drowning slowly in my head
The only cure is time, patience and the knowledge on how to use it.
[Verse 2]
At times I Thought I found love,
but it’s Always the wrong time, wrong place
No one’s healed from their traumas so we are doomed to suffer. One January I hit the bottom and tried to end everything.
a day I’ll never forget.
3 years of deep reflection, healing, reforming
And changing my old ways
Unfortunately it don’t change the past.
Even though I’m In a better place now wishing for a brighter future
I’ll just always too late,
Yeah it’s always too late.
[Pre-Chorus]
No one has ever saved enough to pay attention
Forever alone with no one to understand
Every laugh feels like a costume
With my mask I’ll smile till the end
But Underneath I cry cus,
Every day is a reminder of all my failures
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
And it tears me open, like a dagger in the back the depression always comes back
Every thought like a blade in my flesh
The internal torment haunts me
Deep within
[verse 3]
[scream]
I feel the reaper come for me
Time to leave, since I can’t find any relief
The blades cut across skin
The deeper they go, I’m more at peace
Cus the Pain feels real, and to me that’s a blessing
[low vocal register]
If you think you know me, your mistaken
You say you love me till it’s time to prove it
Now I’m all alone with all these thoughts and feelings
[outro]
[half-sung]
If there’s hope, say something
If there’s a way out of the darkness, show me the light
before it’s too late.
Till then it’s just me and the darkness in my head.
