I Don'T Want You To Worry

October 17, 2012
------------------------

I cannot sleep, even though
I say I do...
I lie-
I am not okay
Even though,
I tell you I am
I lie-
See...I don't want you to worry
Because I cannot be helped
This demon has already consumed me
I cannot breathe at night
I cannot sleep
I'm going out of my mind
But still, to you
I lie-
I'm sorry
I just don't want you to worry
I am too far lost
Too far gone...
I cannot be saved
