Save My Mind

23 5 2
                                    

Sometimes I wish

My car would hit a tree

I'd catch on fire

And let death overtake me


But to speak those words

Would be insane

No one's supposed to know

The poisoned thoughts laced in my brain


No one's supposed to know the rules to my sickening game


We pretend we don't matter

That our twisted thoughts are straight

Our souls darken and become sadder

We surrender to our predetermined fate

These mountains of burdens we carry

We were only supposed to climb

And these words that haunt me

I can't help but need to rhyme


I'm running out of time

Save my mind


Sometimes I wish

My heart would stop

I'd cut off my lungs

And let my breathing halt


But to speak those words

Would be insane

No one's supposed to know

The poisoned thoughts laced in my brain


No one's supposed to know the rules to my sickening game


We pretend we don't matter

That our twisted thoughts are straight

Our souls darken and become sadder

We surrender to our predetermined fate

These mountains of burdens we carry

We were only supposed to climb

And these words that haunt me

I can't help but need to rhyme


I'm running out of time

Save my mind


Save my mind

Help me breathe

I don't want to die

I want to be


I'm running out of time

Save my mind
