Not One More Day.

This head is so damn twisted
These thoughts run wild and free
I try to calm them down
And then force myself to breathe.

Would someone please tell me why
This pain is so consuming?
I hate the way people look at me
And the way they're always assuming.

I try to set these voices loose
So I shake my head side to side
I scream inside a closed up fist
I scream so that I can survive.

Insanity drives me to break downs
And break downs drive me to hate
I hate myself and I hate this place
These thoughts determine my fate.

Bitterness grabs my hands and pulls
Anger runs deep down my spine
Just let me breathe for a second
I think I'm going to need some time.

Stop screaming, they can't hear you
I swear to God I'm not insane
I fight them off with contradictions
I need some way to relieve this pain.

Give me that, it's on the desk-
Please turn your nosy eyes away
I'm not going to go through this
Not for one more broken, beaten day.
