In the Dark

In the dark, living life with no lights on
Every day, every night, feel like the fights on
Paranoid in a void, I can't see shit
Heart beat increasing feeling like I can't breath, shit
On my knees sick, feeling deranged
Words can't describe what I feel in my brain
Cocaine, really did a number on my nerves
Haven't touched it in years but I'm still feeling served
Nightmares, dreams never nice, can't sleep right
Beer is the only thing keeping me alive
Panic button, feel ill, time to take flight
Fear is the only thing that makes me wanna die
Never cry, tears bottled up inside, drowning
Can't breathe, voice is mute, no one can hear the shouting
In crowds, I find myself breathing heavy, counting
Up to ten, begin again, always doubting

In the dark, shadows all around
In the dark, rattled by the sounds
Take a breathe, I can feel my heart beat pound
Blood pumping backwards, dizzy falling to the ground
In the dark, I feel the walls closing in
In the dark, vision steady growing dim
Faces turn to monsters like here we go again
Room spins out of control, feeling like it never ends

Grip tight to my sanity, control is everything
Try to let the sleeping dog lie but I can't let it be
Damaging, twisted thoughts, wicked damage me
I can feel the knocks pounding, incessant hammering
Voices, I can hear them when I sleep
Saying things that I should do and things that I should think
On the brink, an if I snap then its to late
No going back, no chance to clean the slate
I don't want it, the phrase to sum it all up
Screaming silently body hit the floor balled up
Drugs, so many drugs, I can still feel it
Sickness inside, feeling like I'll never heal it
Kill it, kill it, kill the thoughts before they start
Feeling dark, always dark, infatuated with the heart
Always beating, shut it up
Stuff the feelings in a locked box before they run a muck

In the dark, shadows all around
In the dark, rattled by the sounds
Take a breathe, I can feel my heart beat pound
Blood pumping backwards, dizzy falling to the ground
In the dark, I feel the walls closing in
In the dark, vision steady growing dim
Faces turn to monsters like here we go again
Room spins out of control, feeling like it never ends
