I toss and I turn screaming inside wondering if I should curl up and die,
My whole life and world is a lie and I'm wondering if I should say goodbye.
Insomnia and hallucinations of fears appear before me, dressed in black ready to destroy me.
The time is ticking tick by tick,
I think I'm gonna soon lose it.
Pace by pace I hear the steps, knowing the devil is on his way to my doorstep,
The poison sets in here goes the ride let's hope I just don't die this time.
Scratching the door is a fun habit, but my wrist seems to make for a better pain tablet.
The devil grabs my mouth and looks in my eyes, he knows nobody can hear my cries,
I'm shoved in the water down deep below, my muffled screams never seem to show.
The waves come in roaring and so does the tide, how am I gonna make it out alive?
I saw a flash in front of my eyes, and it sure left me horrified.
Visions of blades, flowers, and a grave,
I wonder how I'll get through hell today...
