Deep Within Me

I try not to give up

But deep within me

This dark hand is reaching for my soul

I can feel them pulling me down

Making me so useless, so scared

Scared to live and scared to let go

I wish to walk with a veil in front of my face

Hiding the me I’ve become

Showing none of the weakness

I feel inside

And although I’m screaming

I know no one will understand

Feeling only fear

I try to stay

For I’m scared to leave this place

I feel trapped

Trapped between life and death

I want to live

When my soul is free again

Not chained to the memories of you

Not chained to the darkness you placed deep within me
