Holding my breath

Knots in my core

Twisting from the inside 

Since air filled my lungs 

Trying not to break 

Broken wings 

Let me sing

Maybe it’ll save my soul from within.

My soul starts to cry 

Trying not to die 

Lost in emotion 

Trying to be me 

So lost

I can’t see me 

Trying to breathe

Heart feels broke 

Soul feels weak 

So lost 

I can’t even speak.

It’s the same record on repeat 

Self sabotage kicks in 

And it's not gonna let me win 

Cant stop

Staring at the walls again.

How can I ever be free 

If I can’t just be me. 

I think I’m starting to see 

Why I'll never be free.
