Trapped In A State of Mind
Some times the dark is so dark it’s heavy
The quite so quite it hurts your ears
Some times the pain is bone deep
And the sadness to sad, to shed tears
Some times the tricks your mind plays
Deal the deadliest blows to your soul
Depression and anxiety tell you their lies
Their web of deceit take it’s mighty toll
You try to pull out, to see life as it really is
But your mind misfires the message sent
And though you want so bad to be free
That you work, try, and pray, until spent
You feel lost, like on the open sea all alone
And everyone around you cannot see
Though your waving your arms like mad
Trying to form the words; HELP ME!
Why didn’t you say something they ask
Tell us why didn’t you cry out in your fear
I wanted to, you weakly get out your reply
In fact I tried but the words were not near
If I could have said them, told it all to you
It would have seemed like a foolish tale
There just are not words sufficient to say
What it’s like to live in this hell
