There is a light at the end of this tunnel they call life


I can barely breathe there is something stuck in my windpipe


When I try and explain myself no words come out


Then people try and say they understand what it’s about


When in reality they haven’t lived a second without


Happiness, Love, even the simplest hug


But that’s ok I will make it to the end of my journey


Even though I can feel my insides burning


Nothing will stop me I will make it to that light


Positivity, Peace, and courage will help me through the fight


I constantly tell myself everything will be ok


Yet my insides are screaming I don’t want to live this way


Standing on the edge of doubt I can feel gravity take over


Thought to try and defy physics and hover


Falling at the speed of sound I can feel a weight lift off my shoulder


Walk around silent when I really want to scream


Life is just a never ending dream


It’s crazy when you realize there was never a light


Because everything is fake in life and as dark as night
