Closed Ears
I'm screaming into closed ears, no one understands
How i feel or what's in my heart, I've got no helping hand
Because I'm so messed up but no one will listen when i say so
I've tried so hard to fix myself and everyone acts like they don't know
They don't care that I'm losing myself faster than a flying bullet
I'm walking on a tight-thin rope, no safety net to catch my heart, it wouldn't matter though because, I'd fall right through it
And I'd fall face first because that's the only luck I've got
I try to speak, No more words catch the surface because my nerves are so shot
And It's sitting there in my lungs but, What's it matter when it's no use
It's been like this for years and it won't cut loose
I can no longer get my words out, they sit there, like a stubborn stain
And it seems the more I try and keep my cool, the more it drives my whole body insane
So what can i do when no words or gestures can make anything alright?
I'm wrestling with my body, heart, mind and spirit and I can tell I'm losing the fight
So what can I do when I'm screaming into closed ears and no one understands?
When I don't care how I feel or what's in my heart? I've got no helping hand
