I am suffocating
it won't get much
worse than this
Encased in darkness
I can't shake
I'm beating hard
with both my fists
with no chance i
can break the lid
of my damnation
My sarcophagus!!......
When I grew dead
to the whole world
i turned my back
on all my hope
and then I crawled
into the shell
of myself
just to cope.
It was cozy at first
with no reality
till panic came
in a huge burst and
left me begging
to be free
But I am trapped
inside of me!!
I'm trapped
Inside of me
Depression is a
long dark cave
it's entrance jammed
by mental blocks
an there's no one
there that can save
my life left
on the rocks.
Despair is a
"Sarcophagus"
a world absent
of joy and bliss
and if I can't
break free of it
I'll smother in the mix
Of pain that
begged me flee
from all the stimulus
that forced me
into this coffin
of my flesh
but i will break
free shortly
I will break
free shortly!
I'm focusing on
all the good
I knew before
In my childhood
The innocence that
had no room
to leave my hopeful
brain entombed
The love of Mom,
The love of Dad
and all the joys
that I once had
lie just outside
if i can trust
that all my dreams
are just not dust
they're not just dust.
For any life
is better than
this prison that
offers no plan
and as my face
so long deadpanned
Breaks free from
sorrows contraband
I find I'm healing
as a man
I find I'm healing
as a man!!
I flex my arms
my muscles bulge
prepared to break
down all these walls
my legs are bent
prepared to thrust
against my Locked
sarcophagus
My brain screams at me,
"NOW YOU MUST ! ! !
My bloodied hands,
scarred soul and mind
rip and claw against what binds
fleeing my sarcophagus
inching outward...
bit by bit.
My soul could never
stand a cage
it helped unleash
my wings and rage
I shed what my
depression did
and busted out
its coffin lid!!!
I busted out
its coffin lid
I've broken free,
I stand and breathe
and savor all that
life can bring
If I'd wasted
away to nothing
there would be
nothing left to waste
I'm looking towards
to the futiure
and I'm eager
for the chase!!
One can't get up
when they are down
Unless they strain
against the force
of life in shadows
creased with frowns
and seek a better course
I'm on my way
without remorse
breaking free
yeah, I'm breaking free
of what used to be me
Yeah, I've broken free
why don't you break
free with me
and let depression be
No more depression
no more depression
No moe sarcophagus!
