Escaping Yourself

You can't get away from what lives within your mind....

Alone with my thoughts,not a place I should be
Plunged into a darkness, I look but cannot see

I know that they are here,I can feel their rage
I know if this was a book,I would turn the page

There is nowhere to turn,I am frozen now with fear
Screaming out for help,but no one seems to hear

I'm being held prisoner,by the demons deep inside
I hope that everyone knows,how hard I truly tried

It's a fight that I know,I could never win
Trapped in this hell,because my life's a sin

I slowly close my eyes,and then let myself go
It's the right thing to do,in my heart I know

I am no longer here,in this life next to you
Please always know, that my love was true

I just couldn't go on,living life this way
I couldn't handle the torture,for another day

I softly whisper goodbye, as they shut the door
The nightmare is over, there's simply no more
