No Escape

The thoughts in my head driving me mad I didn't want to go bad Cant help but to be sad No need for a dad who was just as bad
I need a way out without having to shout or pout No where to hideout Just want to blackout Maybe then I can find a way to breakout Until then I remain in a shadow of doubt
The pressure continues to build Life unfulfilled time begins to still While I was unwilled No way to rebuild
Can no longer handle the torment Tired of living in discontent Never gave consent with intent I was unable to prevent Now there's nothing left but to repent

How much control do we have over our own life?

Nice rhyme Jeremy, the best rhymes don't repeat words, so try to use different words to add variety (eg bad, bad) typo unwiled? Keep trying, I like the line separation better than paragraph form.
