Internal Black Hole

Why do I feel this way? 
Feels like I'm being swallowed up by darkness..
Like I'm being shaken until I cry, and yet here I am frozen in time.
I'm being internally beaten up..
My heart wanting to burst apart.
Why do I feel so down all the time?
Do I need help..? Is school the cause of this pain..? 
This emptiness inside me.
It is once said in a song.. 
"Silence makes me think about what I've done.. There's no way to mask what is real.  No sound to hide behind."
If you're ever wondering why I have headphones in... Is because I then don't have to think about the things that I've done... I can hide behind my music, put up that barricade, as if to block out any other living thing.
How am I suppose to love myself if all I feel inside is nothingness... Just a big black whole, sucking every bit of happiness out of me and making me feel sick to my stomach, makes me feel betrayed, not trustworthy... 
What the HELL IS THIS?!
