Only thoughts guide me

something is taking over
from someplace deep inside
this fear i've kept locked away
i thought that i could hide

i thought that it would go away
if i chose to ignore
these feelings that are taking over
i can't deal with it anymore

my heart tells me to be strong
to believe in myself
but how can i help anyone else
when i can't help myself?

this bundled rage that now burns deep inside of me
from suffering and pain; i now let it free


formed upon my bottled feelings
i was too strong to show
responsibilty over taking me
but i can't let it show

i'm not a kid, i'm not a saint
i'm just a simple person
trying to find a way to deal
with life's twisted conclusions

i'm not used to drama (i'm no drama queen)
but these feelings deep inside of me (make me wanna scream)

I cry out loud, sobbing my pain
can't believe it got this way

for the love of god (hear me cry)
tell me, tell me, tell me why

why is life so full of pain?
i'm tired of the same shit over and over again

what doesn't kill you makes you strong
but bleeding to death just seems wrong
