Relentless, Unforgiving

I don't wanna be just another shadow on the wall

I don't wanna be the one that feels oh so small

I want to breathe and fill my lungs

I want to find a voice for those holding their tongues

I need to stop this feeling of drowning

This sensation of falling

No one wants to die alone

But this endless loneliness, I can feel it in my bones

Life is never easy

But I don't long for easy

I don't want to be okay, because okay is a lie

I just don't want to spend half my time trying not to cry

Because I can feel the weight of my world on my shoulders

I'm like Atlas, always under the weight of a million boulders

And this world I live in?

The surface hides the demons and darkness that hide within

I can't see an end, but I can't see a future

The life I'm living is held together by a suture

A temporary solution

No one knows the end results, the conclusion

So I'm stuck living a life not worth living

Because the mind I've been given is relentless and unforgiving
