This darkness has consumed the light around me
I'm gasping for air, begging to still love
But my screams go unheard as they are swallowed by my silent tears
This aching pain in my chest, beyond ready to burst
This pain has turned into anger
I was once a kind and patient person, but false words have turned me into a monster
A beast that everyone is afraid of
I'm calling out for help, hoping someone will see the real me, chained down at the bottom of nothingness
Hoping someone will bring some light into my life, but my life is filled with liars and backstabbers
Snakes surround me, calling out my name, telling me they're here to help, to protect me, but their hisses are full of lies
And I'm a sucker to believe them, wishing that the world wasn't a horrible place full of selfish beasts
A smile to hide the pain, fake tears to control a friend
Controlling at the finest
And I'm beaten down and bruised
Telling myself if I had just gone with it, that everything would have been okay
That this is my fault
