In my head

All alone 

An unexpected quietness

I start to think and I can't seem to stop

The constant thoughts 

Follow me around all day 

Feed off my quiet

Drag me down when i'm alone

Scared to face them 

I'm on my own

Pounding in my head 

Wanting to be heard

Screaming for help

Not able to say a word

Scrambled up ideas inside my head

I try and run away

But I can never get ahead 

All alone 

again 

They hit me in waves 

Putting my whole mind in a daze

My emotions becoming numb

Forgetting my purpose making me feel dumb

They chip and tear at me all day 

My feelings begin to wear away

All that's left are my thoughts 

Destroying me 

Making me 

Alone
