Suffocating In Blindness

I'm suffocating in the blindness

of those around me, hiding in kindness

the acts consume me, I can't find myself

I suffer inside, can't let them see

I suffer inside, how much she's hurting me

I suffer inside, while she's overjoyed

I'm dieing inside, she's so blind to me

I can't find the rhyme, i can't feel it this time

the feelings are too much to bear, can't find it in me to care

whether I live or die, I don't want to try

I just want to break down and cry, but my eyes remain dry

no matter how much i hurt inside, I just wish I could confide

in someone close enough to hold, because inside i'm so cold

tried to run from my pain, drugs only hid it from my brain

tried to run from the hurt, but more pain made me feel like dirt

scars are all that remain, and they serve to chain

me to the past making me a slave, I'll never be as brave

as the two people who care about me as much as I care about them.
