Drowning In the Shallow End
The constant rhythm of this rancid thought in mind
Drives me crazy with invincible ties that bind
Me with insanity and with violence
Solely because you made friends with pestillence
Through my writings and my screams
I show my afflictions upon my heart
Through my fists and my swings
I prove to you what I've become
In my dreams, infected
In my cries, worthless
They see nothing that makes me, me
What I want means nothing and henassy haunts me
My sweat-stained shirt and bloodstained walls tell what I can't
To find the words to what I feel is like choking on water
I once lived deep in love
Now I'm drowning in the shallow end
