So now I walk...
I walk because you can\'t cry when you\'re trying to breath
I walk because I am afraid that if I stop my heart will freeze
I wear the miles into my soul,
I walk until I somehow feel whole.
A numbness washes over my bones,
And the ringing fades to simple death tones.
All the feeling and thoughts push me to fall,
So I walk until I feel nothing at all.
Then I tear at my skin with relentless desire,
A dangerous pursuit to set my flesh on fire.
If only it were that simple and sure,
That I could tear this out and finally be pure.
I\'d lay it in your hands as I kissed your face,
But instead I walk at this soulless pace.
My thoughts are too loud
My demons too proud
Anxiety is violent
But pain is silent
