Drowning

I'm being pulled into the ocean I'm bleeding while surrounded by sharks I'm trying to swim to land But I'm being outweighed by the pain that's drowning my heart Lost and alone with no one trying to find me I try to forget, bit depression taunts me daily to remind me I'm not worthy, I'm not good enough, I can't, I won't I just need someone to see something in me, even when I don't I'm bipolar so my moods go up and down, I struggle with confidence I need love and protection, it's not about needing compliments I'm trying my best, but people always need more My wounds are having a competition, to see how long they can bleed for I make many mistakes, but I always try to put them right It's so dark, I'd you haven't got a torch, at least, adjust the light nightmares keeping me up at night I always seek to just enough to survive When it Came to love I was a mess at it Sleeping around with many girls to try and feel less sadness Using girls as a bandage is my best habit I use that as an excuse, but it doesn't make it less tragic I can't make everything right But I'm going to rise from the water and spread my wings tonight Giving up isn't an option, no matter how hard it gets I'll find a way to pull through and move past all the pain that's hard to forget
