It's tempting me...

Can you hear my heart beat?
To the stressful song my head plays.
All the worry, all the pain,
It's getting louder every minute.
I feel surrounded by a darkness,
So black that I've become blind,
And unaware to any light,
That could help me escape.
I'm suffocating with every breath,
My lungs are giving up on me.
Can someone save me?
Is anyone listening?
Or is my voice to broken to hear?
I feel like running away,
Just taking off in my car.
Drive to anywhere, anyplace,
Would be better than here.
I would leave no note,
No sign, no tears,
Just blast the stereo,
And steer the wheel.
If I left right now,
I'd leave for good.
I wouldn't ever turn around,
Even though I should.
I wish I could escape from here,
And drive until my car broke down.
It doesn't even matter where I end up,
Or how much struggle I would end up with.
It'd be worth it, being safe,
And forgetting all the things that depresses me.
I would finally find my happy place,
The one right out of my dreams.
I would drive forever.....
Just for this weight to be lifted,
That's been slowly crushing my spirit...
