I want to cry
but instead I am holding it inside
my heart is bleeding to death
and I am struggling to catch my breath
but no one seems to care
about this fake smile that I wear
why can't they see my pain
and the way I am going insane
I am so scared that I am going to hurt myself
but am too prideful to ask for help
the voices in my head
tell me I'd be better off dead
I hurt myself to try to appease them
but they keep coming back again and again
what do I do now? where do I go from here?
I am being paralyzed from my fear
my soul is being torn apart
these are just tales from my bleeding heart
