as the darkness creeps over my world
i am not afraid, i've seen the before
one word, one thought, one event is all it takes
then im back in this battle, always alone
prepared for the world to turn its back on me
i run for familiar shelter, and watch the storm roll in
to myself i think, 'how long will it last this time?'
my demons on the horizon, im not ready to fight yet
with my pipe in hand, i smoke reality away
my body weakens, shaking as the sorrow sets
the simplest task, a dreadful event
when all i want to do is lay down and give in
im not strong enough today to fight this war
when all thats left is destruction, what path do i take?
do i wait here for the demons to get me?
or should i keep climbing this cliff which never seems to end..
this prison seems safe enough, but it is not an escape
my blood pressure increase sending my heart into overdrive
this is new to me, i lay back down, breathe...
a deadly silence, and then i realize, im dead inside
its daylight when i look to the star for guidance
how do you pick yourself up when someones leaning on you?



(this is what comes to me when im depressed and need to write it down)
