Skeletons

Still alive though I'm only surviving

On the terms that my mind is allowing

Today is just another bad brain day

I can't remember when I last felt okay

Still, I tell myself to move on even if it kills me

I need to, I would miss my friends and family

But how do I turn down the volume in my head?

Cause I can't stay here forever lying in my bed

I can't even count the skeletons in my closet

Those who live in me without paying deposit

Tried to yell at the voices, it made them louder

I guess my misery is what gives them power

I can hear them laugh pointing out my flaws

Their words rip through my heart like claws

Is it that weird I'm more afraid of living?

Then I am of the thought I'll end up dying
