The End of Beginings

Here I am
On the bottom 
Looking up
Here I am
All these lies
I’ve given up
I’m so tired
Of being bad
But I can’t stop
I can never stop…

Here I go
Clawing my eyes out
To stop the pain
Here I go
Screaming in silence 
Cause I’m filled with shame

I’m tired of hurting
Everyone around me
I feel possessed
The devil inside me

Can’t you see?
I’m trying so hard
Living my life
Like the flip of a tarot card
This feeling of dread
Is so strong
Am I going insane?
Or have I been here all along…
