I held onto the shackles too long The cold metal pressed into my palms All I wanted was for it to be gone But I was reluctant to drop my arms Only I was holding me back Holding the chains as if...
The sirens are singing. They're calling for you. Running away from your home. And all that you've known too. Deeper and deeper. Into the woods you go. You lost it all. The truth you now know.
I want my demons to go, Wished they'd leave me alone. So that my every decision, I don't constantly judge myself on. So that with the little things I can just leave alone.
Your dealing with the same ol story again. That no one cares for you, and you wish it could end. Your emotions run rampant in your struggling mind. And as you sit here alone, your begging for a sign.
I'm crying out for help, But none will answer me. I'm begging for salvation, In a large and empty sea. Please remove your apathy, And take a closer look.
#mymusical JOSEPH: Frayed at the edges, A little rough, But whenever I'm with you, What I do's never enough.
I cannot shed tears for you, You know, For then I'd never stop They'd just Keep Falling Down. I cannot bend Or break an inch One tiny crack In this castle of glass Will bring The whole thing Down.
Anxiety You need to stop lying to me I'll be fine I just need time But with every last word You become worse It's getting hard to breath Without suffocating first You're closing in on me fast And...
It's the rage and the fire And the hatred It's the darkness screaming to get out It's the shadowy veil Dropping over my eyes Obscuring vision and sense. It's okay, I don't mind I accept it.

Life is spiralling out of control,. The girl has lost all her goals,. Not sure what to do or where to go,. Her smile has failed to grow,. In the hectic life she has,. She always feels so sad,.
My bells are no longer ringing, They only mock me with their sound. These silk suits are no longer shinning, Tattered, they drag on the ground.
I wonder if they know that the motivation to do anything comes from the drive of not wanting THIS THING to consume me. I wonder if they can hear my heart pounding with every lie as I claim to be okay.
Stare at me, eyes fixed on my body, My face observed by souls. Judge me, judge me like a book, I haven't reached your stupid goals.

Silence is so loud, On this awfully painful day. My good intentions, Were taken the wrong way. If only I could prove right, In my awfully lonely life. Someone help... Please.
