All these thoughts floating through my head
Whispers lead me towards death
Different distorted voices pleading for control
I haven't a moment or two to spare
I don't care if I sell my soul
We've been pleading for respite
For this plague in our minds
Vision's losing focus
It's the pain that broke us
So many thoughts
But no words come out
Overwhelmed inside
Drowning in a drought
Murky seas clotted with blood
Dragged under by waves of doubt
Overwhelmed inside
Drowning in a drought
Why can't these walls that are
Closing in
Collapse instead
And end my suffering?
Quickly now
Before I beat the clock
Jump the gun
Before my time is up
Why can't I see the light at the end of the road?
I'm screaming for a quick salvation as my body erodes
Every time I wake I'm faced with another horror
My dream state isn't any better
Fuck
It's always one or the other
I'm sick of these goddamned mirrors
We've been pleading for respite
For this plague in our minds
Vision's losing focus
It's the pain that broke us
So many thoughts
But no words come out
Overwhelmed inside
Drowning in a drought
Murky seas clotted with blood
Dragged under by waves of doubt
Overwhelmed inside
Drowning in a drought
I know too well, to be
I know too well, to be desperate for salvation; pleading for an end or a miracle. The overwhelming process of thinking. I liked this and the misery I felt reading it.

Thank you, this one was about traffic or writer's block with a dark twist. The emotions I felt while driving was half of this one and writer's block the other half :)

I like your use of opposites. It is a dirge- replete with a refrain. A nice lyric for our soul searched times. -Stella-
