Attack

My heart palpitates
racing faster
lightheaded
feverish
breaking a sweat
sound's deafening
can't catch my breath
gotta run and hide
from these voices
following me inside
it's gonna happen
tonight
last day alive
tears cry
lifes memories passing by
I am smothered
can't breathe
jingling change in a pocket
trembling hands
drop coins in the phone
Hello
is anyone there
please help
I'm dying
can't hold on
gonna implode
I'm alone 
afraid
huffing breath
sinking to the ground 
the receiver hollers
Hey lady
are you alright...
huh...uh
the spells been broken
yeah I'm okay
really okay
alive again
thanks
