My world is spinning
Before it comes crashing downI open my eyes
But can't get off the ground
I hear my demons
Telling me my flaws
Telling me I'm worthless
That I'm nothing at all
"A waste of life"
They scream inside
They're tearing me apartThere's nowhere to hide
I gather my strength
And I slowly stand
I want someone to say it's okay
And then tale my handBut no one's there
They never are
Because I hide my pain
And my scarsI seem strong on the outside
But I'm crumbling within
I want the pain to stopBut I don't want it to end
I want my story to be over
But they say it's just the beginningMy life will continue
But my demons are still winning
I'm broken down
I'm lost and scaredI need help
But No one's there
