Hanging By A Thread
When the rage takes over and its hard to remain sober
22 years old feeling like his fucking life is half over
The world around him isnt as good as the one he built inside
Hes attacked by the demons who took residence in his mind
Feels like he lost the fight in a battle thats taking forever
Holes in his sweater, clings to sarcasm as if it makes him clever
His mind is a mess, body filled with stress, hes stained with regret
Theres pain in his chest and as he feels like nothings left
He covers his misery with jokes and an attitude that provokes
But he cant always cope and the inner darkness suffocates hope
He knows where to find the light but hes too worn out too fight
Only a few times has he begged God to help him change his life
Deep down he wants to leave his sin and ditch the fucking medicine
Hes tired of losing everything, all he wants is to make a win
He wants to avoid the fake love and embrace the kind thats real
He wants to rid his mind of all the fucked up things he shouldnt feel
But he knows theres a plan and that keeps him sane enough
And after the bullshit hes seen he knows his life aint that tough
He just needs help to get up and start putting in the work
And get familiar with happiness so he loses comfort in the hurt
So step in God, and you can give this crazy kid a break
Theres only so much more he can take, dont let him drown in his hate
Help him to use his logic to overcome all his stupid emotions
Help him leave his poisons and start finding some good doors to open
Ease his stress a bit, give him some strength to help him rise above it
Give him a hand and help him better understand the shit hes dealing with
