Life Inside My Head (Struggles)
My thoughts
Once again they fight me
My mind
Betrays me every day
My emotions
Lack in self control
My hands
Cover my face as I cry
My eyes
Burn with anger and sadness inside
My feet
Take me places I shouldn't go
My pain
Makes me regret things every day
My friends
Only some understand me
My life
Is sinking once again
Can I remember what held me up
Can I go back to the way that I was
Can I forget the pain that I've caused
Can I just try to right all my wrongs
Is there a way out of this mess
Is there a way to just forget
Is there a way to change my past
Is there a way to be normal again
What can be done
Is uncertain
So maybe one day
I'll learn this
Get it right
For once in my life
I'll figure out
This mess called my life
