The Escape
Blurred eyes People in my life
Red lines Leavin’
Reality disguised Pull out a knife
Bad signs Bleedin’
Lovers in the back Read my scars
I cried The cuts
Smoke another stack On my arms
I tried The hidden wrist
Laying on the ground Dead inside
About to give up Clench my fist
Higher than the clouds Angry at my mind
Just another cut Losing control
Release the pain No one of my kind
Look down Losing it all
Blood stain Waiting for a sign
No one around Playing the game
Alcohol in my bloodstream Playing tricks
Mind races On my brain
I scream trying to fix something
Blank faces Searching for my soul
Don’t leave Feeling nothing
Depression kicks in Happiness where’d you go
It lies
I can’t win
As it tells me to die
Little does it know
I’m barely alive
