Echo
These words I scream have no echo
because my pain has no voice
as I close the door silently behind me
I question if this is my only choice
the void inside me grows longer each day
and the invisible wounds so deep
what seeds of sadness did I sow
for this to become what I reap?
these words I scream have no echo
am I running out of time?
the reasons for this I cannot state
is this really a victimless crime?
It shouldn't be long now
this will be the beginning of the end
you think that I am joking
but some things you can't pretend.
These words I whisper have no echo
my body has grown tired
I'll let go of the hope to find
the happiness I desired
I'll let go of all this negativity
as I drift off to an unconcious sleep
I thought I had the strength to do this
but all I can do is weep.
These words I scream have no echo
'cause I can't seem to get them out
but it doesn't really matter
they would only fall on deaf ears...
...again.

I
I feel like the sun has all but stopped shining
I feel like I've burnt down the one last cloud with a silver lining
I feel like I don't want to live anymore
I feel like I'm drowning - black to the core
I'm shaking and bleeding
my face is no longer decieving
Can you see it now?
Can you see...
I feel like I'm choking on my own breath
I feel like hope is all I have left
I feel like I'll be this way forever
I feel like it's going for worse and not better
Not fallen; but leaning
these words have no meaning
'cause you can't see it now...
you can't see what you don't believe
I feel alone, I am silent, for these words cannot be said
I feel lost, wondering, why I am trapped inside my head
I feel like you don't get it, and I don't know if you ever will
I feel I need to escape without the aid of a pill
I just can't let go...
If I leave, I'll never know...
Maybe, maybe you're not as blind as I think...
can...you see it now?
Don't worry, I'm gonna be okay
I guess this pain just has to find it's own way.
