As the Walls Close In
As the walls close in
my world is getting smaller
Beads of sweat drop from my head
down to my collar
I don't know what to do anymore
I feel like my end is coming soon
I no longer see the light ahead
I no longer see the moon
In total darkness I stand
I no longer see clear
I breathe as if to die
cuz my soul is in fear
My heart starts to pound
as if to come our my chest
The pain is so immense
will I be put to rest
As the walls close in
I have no one to turn too
My mind is going crazy
I'm lost I don't have a clue
I'm standing right here
searching for some salvation
I look everywhere I can
with deep anticipation
My eyes full of tears
my fists clenched real tight
Anger within me burns
things don't feel right
Why do I feel this way
my mind starts to spin
My emotions go crazy
I want to commit sin
As the walls close in
my mind looses control
I'm begging for mercy
as my heart grows cold
I fall to my knees
I'm no longer alert
I know as I'm here
this pain has me hurt
I'm wounded I'm scarred
blood slowly falls from me
The pain is so strong
it has eaten me alive as you see
I can no longer fight it away
cant stand strong
I been fighting this battle
for just too damn long
Time for me to take one last breath
and just close my eyes
Let my soul go away
as the rest of me dies
