1 Day Please

I wish that I was good enough

I don’t understand why life is so hard and so tough

I always knew life wouldn’t come to me so easily

But why can’t I have 1 day to myself? To release me?

Overwhelmed by life itself

Is becoming too unbearable for myself

I just want to run away but where would I go?

Anxiety keeps me home, to the place I only know

Why does life do this to me?

Just give me 1 day please, I need to release me

I need my soul to be cleansed and set free

God gives me so much pain, got me begging on my knees

I just need 1 day… please?

Depression keeps me up at night 

Scared and lonely, and out of sight

Stress is the master disguise 

I can look you in the face and tell you I’m okay, but we both know it's lies

No one truly understands the feelings behind these dark brown eyes

I am someone, but I feel like no one, I just need to release me

Please, 1 day, just 1 day to myself

I’m completely overwhelmed by life itself
