I covered my scars,
"One day it will get better"
I tried to make myself believe
But I couldn't believe a future I didn't see.

So I dug my hole deeper,
Making sure I couldn't get out
No one saw the pain behind my eyes,
I hid behind too thick of a disguise.

In the process I got rid of myself,
Trying to become someone I knew I wasn't
No one ever noticed the lie,
Because they believed what they heard, "I'm alright"

I'm clawing my way out,
Of this hole I've lived in for so long
I'm giving this my all,
I'll have nothing if I fall.

Just another bullet in the head,
Another stab to the chest.

I know I can find my way out,
I can't abandon my hope now.
Free me from these chains
I'm not letting myself go insane.
