Just when I finally feel at peace a distant voice

Erupts into a piercing noise

Delivering it's slow defeat

My grasp on reality is pushed to the brink

There it is again

Shrill utters from the beast

Three words that cause my slow and painful defeat

"You're worthless meat."

Am I nothing more?

A pathetic life?

What am I here for?

My only home is agony

Losing grasp of my vices

My only advice is

Don't follow me through the misery

Another day begins

Convinced they never seem to end

Isn't it plain to see?

The reflection of the man that I just don't want to be

Hoping this sensation doesn't last so I can leave it behind and just part of the past

I am still stuck in the thick of it

I am still stuck deep in shit

I'm growing tired of feeling this way

I don't know if I can take another day

Is this all that's left for me?

To journey through life in agony

My only home was tragedy

Losing touch with my vices

My only advice is

Don't follow me, through the misery

In time I will surely learn

That the voice at the back of my mind

Is just my own concern

It does not control my life

This is only the beginning of the true fight

It does not control my life

I have a goal and aim to keep it in sight
