destructive emotions (Remove filter)
Tears that sting
What's happening to me, I don't know what to say
Tears that sting, fall from my eyes every day
My heart wants to do something, but does something else
I try to control it, but it slips away from my grasp
I'm searching for a way to calm my restless mind

Animal Suicide
I tell you
I'll love you no matter what.
I don't care what they think,

Until all that's left
is an ugly mangled mass,

This black cloud befuddles my mind
Then it takes over and I am confined
To feel worthless, idiotic and desperate as can be
To these destructive emotions and I want to be free
