You smile a while, denial inside
You crawl through the wall of emotions you hide
You change, rearrange everything in your head
You've cried and decide you'd be better off dead
Take a walk through the halls with their walls caving in
The floors and the doors their patience wears thin
They'll fall to the ground all around you're in danger
They'll twist like a fist in your chest it grows stranger
A knife takes a life more humane than these thoughts
A gun is more fun in these fights that you've fought
A battle that rattles your cages of pain
A war, as it eases releases the strain
Look in my eyes, you can see the real me
Never forget that I set you free
Stay in the way of my head and my mind
Keep your eyes open and never go blind
