I can never give you what you need
I just stare blankly into your eyes
I'm still but a shell of a man
The very thing I despise
Mental torture overwhelms me
It's the only thing I know
I must fight it to get better
An obstacle I must outgrow
I'm in my head most of the time
It's pushing away those close to me
Prescribed poison has never helped
Nothing seems to set me free
I'm drowning in my own sorrow
A prision I call home
I've trapped myself in this state of mind
Not leaving room to grow
Mental torture overwhelms me
It's the only thing I know
(I can never give you what you need)
I must fight it to get better
An obstacle I must outgrow
(I just stare blankly into your eyes)
I'm in my head most of the time
It's pushing away those close to me
(I'm still but a shell of a man)
Prescribed poison has never helped
Nothing seems to set me free
(The very thing I despise)
