Mind War

I've tried a million times to reach the same stage Facing the same lights Burning at the same pace Whatever was left of me, got designated to your happiness. Can't go rest Can't take a step The air choked the life Out of my breath And here I am standing with a bouquet of roses— On my death. I've never been through this. The confused mind, the unstable kind. I would lose myself if I was fifteen, Straight through my heart, the rupture, the hurt that's hurting- Didn't close within four years that's been chasing; Me and my favourites set on those fires Where the flesh felt alive but the mind went numb... Things wouldn't go the same as they should but sometimes we all speak from where we belong.
