Temporary bliss has fallen
A deep, dark ditch up ahead
The calm before the storm
The light before you're dead
Just when I thought this would never end
Reality becomes my fears
Yesterday I was smiling
Today I'm down in tears
To them you seem like you're stable
First impressions always lie
You say you'll keep me safe here
But there's no truth in your eyes
When I'm cornered and abandoned
Spit your venom on me
When you come around by random
Scream your obscenities
I am starved and I am bruised
Will to run, I cannot find
If I live, I cannot choose
And I'm running out of time...
