Who Would Hold My Hand

It's suffocating me,
This pain that I buried inside.
It's killing me,
This poison that's spreading inside,
 
Who do I tell?
Who would care enough?
Who would hold my hand?

I sail these treacherous waters alone,
And I don't know when I'll drown,
But before I go,
I wanna know,
If it's always been this way,
Was life always this unfair?
