Heartbreak

I'm going through something and no one understands
I just want to be able to hold your hand
The days are going by, and things are getting worse
I've cried so much my voice has gone hoarse

I feel like I'm trapped in these walls around me
I'm waiting for someone to come set me free
If they don't I will never overcome this obstacle
I try to get out, but I keep running in a circle

I try to breathe, but I can only gasp for air
The more I sit here the longer I wonder and stare
What has come of me besides an empty soul
I have no one to come to me and console

I'm losing my balance one step at a time
I don't know how to get back up and climb
I need to leave these demons in the wall
But I can't do that if all I do is fall

One day soon I hope to overcome this pain
I really want to forget the feeling of being insane
I feel my chest collapsing, my heart is getting smaller
It's starting to hurt, I need to go, for it's about to shatter
