Trapped
I look inside
And I try to pull myself out
I want so desperately, just to release
What is hurting me
But I don't know what's wrong
And i'm not sure I can stay strong
Behind a wall, i'm locked away
Trapped, stumbling through a maze
Of unexplainable pain
I'm a prisoner to myself
A slave to these powerful feelings
Not even I have the key
I bleed, but you can't see
I cry, but I can't let you tell
I'm entangled in my own secret hell
Everyone has answers
But none a cure
I wonder what's worth living for
Confused and lost
Cast into a deep darkness, I can't let go
So many tearful thoughts, from who knows where
Like Hade's river of despair
I look in the mirror and nothing seems real
What do I think, what don't I feel
Emptiness behind my eyes
Puffy from all the tears I cried
I can barely remember the girl I was
And I can't find a way to help myself
So I pray to God, maybe he can help me to see her again, smiling back at me
Trapped inside deppression, with so many questions
Like how do you even begin to mend a broken heart
If there is no place to start.....
