Sadness has a hold on me
Unrelenting and unforgiving
It lingers in the back of my mind
Day in and day out
Like cold hands, firmly holding me in their grasp
Squeezing until I can no longer breathe
I try to gasp for air, and it feels like the weight of the world is sitting on my chest
How can my mind be so beautifully chaotic?
Thoughts that make me feel that I'm existing in a dream
Thoughts that are like being trapped in a nightmare loop
Perfectly made by my every waking fear
I don't want to be like this
I don't want to be controlled by these emotions
Not to be a burden
Not to be a bother
Hoping the ones I care about most never get tired of me
So I hide it, I hide the tears, I hide the pain
I'll bear the chaos in silence
Never letting the world see me fall apart
