Free Me

Maybe I feel more
Maybe that's what kills my soul faster

I can't breathe
I can't sleep in this hell
The unknown the unseen the unforetold 
I love wholeheartedly  and that's what takes it
I show them I'm heartless and that's what breaks it
I don't know the difference between real and fantasy
So why I can't just be?
Sleep doesn't really call to me anymore
I can't dream it doesn't seem possible in this storm
I got so many people that I like
I got few people that I hate
This anger in me rages like a demon seeking to break
The chains that bind it down the break before its found
Its hard to tell what's real and make believe 
So why can't I just drown?
So many things on my mind
If I get lost don't waste your time
I'll come back in your dreams of your destiny
And show you that I'm fine
This life is hard no one said it wouldn't leave you scarred 
Busted windows and broken walls 
Crumbles on the floor
So many walls built around my heart
So many chains  wrapped around the parts
That keep it in from the hurt and suffering the ones I let close start.
So many lost and yet so many found
When I get up don't push me down
Its hard to tell what is real and make believe
So why can't I be found?
