Some dark lyrics to a song I was working on...
I struggle to rise, it aches in my mind
Tethered to sadness
I push back despair
Helplessness, hopelessness
Can't let them see
This wretch hides inside me, immune to repair
I used to be happy, an innocent child
It seems so removed
Was it only a dream?
I've buried my youth in denial and guilt
Nobody listens
Judgment and shame
I must admit I contemplate ending it
I told you I hurt
This illness is real
No childhood trauma, just disease of the mind
I want it all gone
It's my life to kill
Not gonna make it into heaven
Tonight I'll make it my last night in hell
Tethered to sadness
I push back despair
Helplessness, hopelessness
Can't let them see
This wretch hides inside me, immune to repair
I used to be happy, an innocent child
It seems so removed
Was it only a dream?
I've buried my youth in denial and guilt
Nobody listens
Judgment and shame
I must admit I contemplate ending it
I told you I hurt
This illness is real
No childhood trauma, just disease of the mind
I want it all gone
It's my life to kill
Not gonna make it into heaven
Tonight I'll make it my last night in hell
