Maddening nightmares make these tears,
you know there's no way out of here.
Ousted by everyone, and its all on me,
wasting away my life in misery,
now I'm imprisoned and there's no key.
Waking every morning to the sound of my own screams,
orchestrating these self-depricating schemes,
ruining every part of me that was once happy,
sinking farther into another extreme
that only wants to destroy me.
Echos of my past stain these walls,
no savior to stop what crawls
everywhere inside these halls,
making my heart and soul take the fall,
yearning to understand why its all my fault...
...I'm my own worst enemy.
