I Won't Take It

Built up a shell
To help me forget
But it only aids to conceal my anxiety

The poisonous bells
That ring in my head
From a world that has offered a key to insanity

If living is hell
Will I rise from the dead?
Or are we bound to create a calamity

Can't even tell
If I'm scared or upset
But every time I keep searching for clarity

Close the doors
Hit the floor
But I won't take it, no not anymore
Spill your words
Till it hurts
But I won't take it, no not anymore

I'm strong and I admit it
But I also have my limits
I'm standing, but I'm wavering
While they all keep on slandering

Shaking off the pain
Clearing up the rain
Gathering the broken pieces
Every single day
Trying to keep myself from going insane
Anger, frustration
Silent depression
It's time to take control
It's time to take control

Close the doors
Hit the floor
But I won't take it, no not anymore
Spill your words
Till it hurts
But I won't take it, no not anymore

Instrumental (harmonies)

Take control of my own choices
Face my fears from all the voices
Stepping up no time for tears
With damaged armor but no shield

Close the doors
Hit the floor
But I won't take it, no not anymore
Spill your words
Till it hurts
But I won't take it, no not anymore

Cut the rope
Let it burn
Won't let anyone tie me down
Kill my hope
It will return
They'll dig their graves where they'll eventually drown
