Amazing song ATM: Stranger by Before You Exit
It's been sometime that I've felt this low
Everything stopped, time moving slow
I never felt this deafening silence before
My heart battling it's own kind of war
I feel funny and just so confused
I lost my concentration, my dignity bruised
These are symptoms of a classic heartbreak
But what ignited these feelings from their wake?
Maybe it's the constant let down I feel
Or my constant anxiety that wouldn't heal
Maybe it's due to trust issues; since everyone leaves
Or maybe it's that I never know who to believe
I'm battling these demons that are winning the fight
They keep me occupied day through night
They keep me company; maybe even a little sane
Because real life humans cause nothing but pain
My demons are me, we have become one
Mental asylum? But where's the fun
You ain't seen nothing yet; I'm not done
And when I am, you'll be praying for the sun
The creatures that seem to have occupied my mind
Are making reality really hard to find
I'm losing my mind, I've almost lost my grip
I'm becoming weak, and one day I'll slip
But I've learned to hang on to broken hinges
To embrace the pain of these deadly syringes
I learned to hold on to every thin hope
But I'm losing grip of this worn out rope
I'm falling down a hole of darkness and pity
Surrounded by lurking shadows; it ain't pretty
I knew that one day, it'll go way too far
And I'll have to lay low; right off the radar
The demons in my head will keep me grounded
I see fire all around; I think I'm surrounded
I'll just stay hidden, in a world of gloom
Surrounded by shadows, breathing in doom
