Help

I woke up blinded by the morning light,
The night too black, the day too bright.
Heavy with dread, chilled to the bone,
I tried to stand, but couldn’t get up alone.

A weight on my chest steals every breath,
I try to move, but I’m too damn depressed.
Frustrated and suffocated, I call out in vain,
But no one hears, so I call out again.

Help! I don’t understand,
The days slipping right through my hands.
I feel disconnected, I don’t belong,
I need to fight, but I’m not that strong.

We’re not blind, but we can’t see,
We’re not deaf, but can’t hear clearly,
We can feel, but don’t feel a thing,
We can heal, but we’re not healing.

We talk about truth, and what it means.
We talk about lies, how we’re deceived.
We talk about life, and chasing the dream.
We talk about death, and where we’re going.

Help! I can’t stay awake,
Exhausted from every step I take.
I feel defeated, I can’t go on,
This road is so hard and endlessly long.

In the mirky water, I sink like a stone,
Surrounded by voices, but still all alone.
I claw for the surface, trying to breathe,
But the weight of this anchor drags me back underneath.

I scream in silence, so no one can tell,
That I’m trapped inside a living hell.
I sit in the dark, so no one can see,
These hollow days, swallowing me.

Help! I need to get away,
But my bones crumble under the weight.
This world is a stranger, colder each day,
I close my eyes, sit here and pray.

Help! I need to escape,
I close my eyes, and drift away.
Help me, help me, I need to escape,
I close my eyes tightly, and run away.
