Life Before Freedom

Silence, darkness, my head it pounds,

Desperately trying to drown out any sound

The crying, the tears, that constantly fill my eyes

Every time I allow my tears to fall

Another part of me dies

All of the pain makes it impossible to remember

What it was like when I didn’t hurt,

Everything was so much more clear

I was living life because I was here

I can’t remember anything anymore,

Only headaches, anger, sadness, fake smiles and white walls

The longer I keep lying to myself, I know the deeper I’ll fall

No one can help what’s wrong with me, I can’t even save myself,

There’s no exit from where I stand, no light, just living hell
