I can't seem to silence the evil within
These battles in my head that I never win
All I really want is to make it out
Of this war in my headspace that makes me doubt
My sanity, my identity
I've lost myself and serenity
//
It comes and goes
In waves I suppose
I'm not okay
I'm not even close
//
I'm terrified of the voices in my brain
They aren't mine, but I can't make them go away
I'm afraid it's something I can't avoid
I must not answer to the call of the void
//
It's like a cancer I can't overcome
Infecting my nerves, making me numb
Burrowing it's fangs deep inside of my soul
Eating what's left like a supermassive black hole
Will I survive, Will I succumb
The darkness is taking control of my lungs
//
It comes and goes
In waves I suppose
I'm not okay
I'm not even close
//
I'm terrified of the voices in my brain
They aren't mine, but I can't make them go away
I'm afraid it's something I can't avoid
I fear I will answer the call of the void
//
Am I a degenerate for
These thoughts that I cannot control anymore
Am I sick and twisted because
Of these intrusive thoughts that I just cannot pause
I hear their commands, I have to avoid
I refuse to answer the call of the void.
