In the Mouth of Madness

Another night needing some spiritual advice Seeking the signs to spark my mind Wishing I knew the way to entice Forgiveness from god for each sin she finds The deep seated doubt felt by people like me Every cold pain that runs through my chest I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy Convincing myself this is where I greet death The panic attacks and depression hit hard In addition to that, I rarely get sleep In most ways, I’m dazed, just lost and bizarre Luckily, no one ever notices me. Someday I pray it all goes away So I can finally find my own peace Feeling happiness naturally, every day Finally feel something besides self defeat Right now, any comfort helps D.R.L.
