Blind to What is Right

I’m not content with giving
Into this world’s misleadings
No place to put myself to rest
Or find hope in something new
Because at the end of the day
I always end up feeling the same way
I’ve grown up a mile
From where my lifeless body will end up being
From where my soulless body will decay
I’ve noticed I can’t keep my hands from shaking
I’ve noticed I can’t keep my mind from racing
And all I want to find
Is a better way
To put my mind at ease
Instead I scream myself to sleep
In hopes that someone will hear me…
I’m still screaming
Can you hear me?
And I know that one is already to many to keep around me
I’m always haunted by the thought of letting down everybody
I’ve made the mistake
Of telling what keeps me up at night
Sometimes I dream of dying
And when I die
There won’t be anything
You heard my screams
But continued to believe their lies
You just stood staring back at me
With those hopeless eyes
Your empty words mean nothing to me
Stop trying to tell me why
I want to find some meaning in life
I want to know everything is alright
But these sleepless nights
Bring my anxious fight
To not tear out my eyes
And be blind to what is right
Blind to what is right
