My patients grow thin in this pit
Darkness surrounds where I sit
My body uptight, my mind on edge
Fighting so hard, but can't reach the ledge
The air is thick as I inhale
Searching for release from my lonely jail
Give me the guts and the will to survive
To climb to the surface and again feel alive
Show me the way and teach me well
To strive for myself and send the pain to hell
I don't know when, and I don't know why
I changed somehow and I live a lie
My true inner being is locked inside
For that's where I put me, in a shadow I hide. .
