Struggle

I struggle with desire Of that which does inspire Me to follow every move Hanging on to every groove To follow brings me pain Closer to the flame Only slowly will I share Every thought and every care Struggle, tearing at the ropes that hold me down Struggle, no one left to hear me make a sound Struggle, can not bear to face the pain inside Struggle, nowhere else to find a place to hide Struggle, chasing out the demons in my head Struggle, reaching out before I end up dead Struggle, choking back the tears that blind my eyes Struggle, please God will you save me from these lies It starts to all unfold Doing what I'm told Time begins to fade away Getting further every day All the time I've lost Wondering what it cost Giving up reality Now I dream perpetually Struggle, tearing at the ropes that hold me down Struggle, no one left to hear me make a sound Struggle, can not bear to face the pain inside Struggle, nowhere else to find a place to hide Struggle, chasing out the demons in my head Struggle, reaching out before I end up dead Struggle, choking back the tears that blind my eyes Struggle, please God will you save me from these lies Thoughts of fear and purpose Only tends to hurt us Do not bother, no I must Hold on to the words I trust To make a right decision A steady cut incision Cut directly in my mind For the answers I must find No I must No I must Struggle, tearing at the ropes that hold me down Struggle, no one left to hear me make a sound Struggle, can not bear to face the pain inside Struggle, nowhere else to find a place to hide Struggle, chasing out the demons in my head Struggle, reaching out before I end up dead Struggle, choking back the tears that blind my eyes Struggle, please God will you save me from these lies
