Walkin With Gloom

My options are few 
Don’t know what to do 
I keep laying it all on the line 

I’m not ready to lose 
I just need a boost 
And maybe a little more time 

But when my panic attacks 
With a sharp bloody axe 
And desperation starts to bleed through 

You know it’s gonna’ be loud 
When it all crashes down 
Maybe then I will make the right move 

And it’s so sad to see 
Me not being me
I haven’t seen me for awhile 

Been out walkin’ with gloom 
I hope I’m back soon 
To heal all the cracks in my smile
