Cry for Help

All of these fears, I just want to be free

I’m falling away, how hard can it be?

Now I’m sure I don’t want to stay

Now or ever, what price do you pay?

The noise echoes around my head

No one’s listening to the words that are said

A cry for help that drives me insane

I’m patiently banging my head

Why can’t they see and hear my pain

The colour turns red, as I begin to feel shame

This pressure is building inside of my brain

So I patiently bang my head

The answer is simple, I need to break free

Where is my saviour, how long can it be?

But no, the dark continues to drift

As I’m patiently banging my head

All I need is a friendly voice,

to remove all the noise,

to start me again,

alone with my joys
