lyrics

sometimes my head feels like it's gonna explode and my chest can't contain
its own contents
like my conciousness becomes a dark room and i just wish
someone would sit awhile here with me
how can feeling numb hurt worse than pain
i pray for a release from the confines of my mind
and your voice to calm the anger in my bones
i don't scream out of hate, but a small flicker of light
that still resides in my heart
i'll never stop fighting even if i'm all on my own
beaten and broken, this struggle is my home
forgive me for the anger in my heart
the pit in my stomach and the water in my lungs
i know at times it can be hard to see
but since i've found you i can finally breathe
i'm starting to believe that there's a cure to this disease
and i can still see your beauty even though life has stolen your halo and broken
your wings
and sometimes this life is more than i can take
but whenever i'm with you, you take it all away
take me away
