DarkPoetry -|- dismal silence -|- (keep telling myself)

(keep telling myself)

Take it all
push it down
deep inside
(keep telling myself
it's not alowed)
trap me in a cage
lock me inside with rage
watch me cave
dig my grave

(keep telling myself
it's not alowed)

hang me
medicate me
choke me
so i die happy

(keep screaming
it's not allowed)

it's all here
in my head
take it away
leave me dead

(screaming at myself
it's not allowed)

it's to much
i cant take
carve away the numb
so i can feel pain

(it's not allowed)
{i'm screaming}
NO!
(it's not allowed)
(not allowed)
(NOT ALLOWED)
{kept screaming til i did it}
