I'm so tired
So alone
And so very afraid.
I want to fill that hole
With it's missing pieces or an unlikely thread.
Bridge that gap of insanity
Let those tears dry out.
They say that emotions are a state of mind that help us cope with circumstances.
I say they're an inconveniance.
Everyone you believe in leaves
When you're weak,
No one is there to assist you
For your always there
- a liability.
I want to fall forever
Relapse just once so that I forget.
I want to believe in happiness.
They believe they know whats best for you
When really,
No one but you knows.
Ice and darkness are our shields.
While the silent river runs down a depth till it crashes and might not ever emerge again.
The song of the seagulls next to the shore is all I want to hear again.
The air rushing past me as I bike down a hill.
The white.
The colours of spring all blooming around me.
Forget the stuffy air that causes my skin to get sticky due to sweat
Or the fact that sometimes it's so hard to breathe
Forget the lies, the betrayal or any of those threats.
I just want to feel myself fly again in the sky
Breaking the laws,
Till I die
That I feel invincible and apart of something.
Not that ghastly smoke hitting my throat
While my life slips away with the air I breathe out.
I don't want a something to release all my frustrations on.
Don't want a sick reason to pass by everyday for the next years to come.
I don't require a prince charming or an ocean full of friends.
All I need is that peace
The peace that shall make this all end.
I'll do anything.
Anything...
