Turn The Page

I hear this voice inside my head
Repeating thoughts of how I should be dead
Emotions entangled in a web of pain
Can’t take it anymore I’m going insane 
Scratching till I peel off all my skin
The itch of defeat will I ever win
My body’s broken souls starting to decay
Looking for a way out but I can’t seem to find a way
Want to scream but I can’t make a sound 
Delusion of my own making so lost I’m never found
Trying to extinguish the burning embers of my rage
My life stories already gone so I can’t turn the page
