Mental Lyrics

Here it comes again

Slowly creeping in

Questioning my worth

Darkness descends

Misguided since birth

I could never contend

Life's trials still hurt

And I am never content

Raised up in the dirt

Always playing pretend

I wasn't very good

At making new friends

I really couldn't see the point

They would all leave in the end

Or stab me in the fucking back

With deceitful intent

The weird kid in class

Sitting alone with my pen

Scribbling words on a pad

Just trying to blend

Avoiding the pack

Following less popular trends

Picked on for being fat

And an outcast I guess

Facing odds that stacked

My home life a mess

I had to learn how to act

Amidst the pressure and stress

Carried an old tattered bag

Ashamed of the way I was dressed

They judged your worth by a tag

My brands were never the best

Anxiety

Hate

Depression

How many pills do you take

Anger

Fear

Sadness

Afraid to look in the mirror

Anxiety

Hate

Depression

How many pills do you take

Anger

Fear

Sadness

Afraid to look in the mirror

Please seek help

Please seek help

As an adult

I just try to get by

Pushing back insecurities

That I'm feeling inside

Not much has changed

There's still devils to hide

That appear when provoked

My rage is building with time

Still keep to myself

In very few I confide

Always slow to trust

I've been told too many lies

I spend a lot of days afraid

When my anxiety flies

Depression takes the rest

Oppressive clouding my mind

Indecisive at best

Searching for words I won't find

Moving like the walking dead

No sign of life in my eyes

Zero pride in my work

My talents always disguised

Diminished self worth

No confidence to survive

Feeling so grave

Like being buried alive

While gagged up and taped

I still struggle and writhe

Being consumed while awake

I lay paralyzed

Thinking what's it going to take

To live a regular life

Anxiety

Hate

Depression

How many pills do you take

Anger

Fear

Sadness

Afraid to look in the mirror

Anxiety

Hate

Depression

How many pills do you take

Anger

Fear

Sadness

Afraid to look in the mirror
