World of Hate

I feel like I'm walking through a maze,
In my mind with no escape. 
What's going wrong inside my head?
Somebody explain why the feeling is 
dead.
My stomach has twisted in sickness,
caused by the people who have 
rendered me senseless.
Now my thoughts have all been 
replaced,
by a substance that can't be erased.
I find that I'm standing on an unstable 
ledge,
wondering how it feels to fall off the 
edge.
Slowly my monsters create from 
inside,
they're working like hell just to 
survive.
I try to wake up from this nightmare 
I'm dreaming,
but in my mind I'm constantly 
screaming.
So won't you please help me before 
it's too late?
and my soul loses the battle against 
this world of hate.
