Life really hurts but I'm not sure because other people say it hurts too And I don't think it does At least not in the same way that it hurts me And I know that sounds arrogant But believe me I didn't ask for this pain its stuck in my brain It's here to stay I'd like it to go away But I don't have a choice So I use my voice to cancel out the noise inside of my head So I don't feel dead So I don't have dread so my thoughts are not mislead Depressions in my mind but I hide it from mankind Cause they don't understand that I'm designed To be something more than a blind confined declined Piece of flesh that stands in line And I'm deeply intertwined with some big ideas and I'm inclined To share them with the world But first I have to find something divine to guide my mind And if you know my name, you should know that I'm in pain Don't wanna ask for much, cause I'll die either way I want to have a place where I can feel like me Oh have I said too much, oh please forgive me Have you ever felt depressed? Or alone or controlled or told what to do by something in your brain That isn't even you, then maybe you can relate to Now times that by 19 and you'll be shown how mean the world is When you know its a machine And insomnias your queen saying you can't sleep Until its all complete except the only thing to do is sleep So you roll around in your sheets waiting for the morning to put you on leave Now times that by 10 you wake up And there's blood in your bed you had nightmares again And you're drenched in sweat you should see a vet Cause you're an animal you're a radical cannibal Who eats himself and you're not understandable Because everything you see is diagonal And you're not compatible with anyone So you might as well just see that you're the only one Now times that by 15 and you'll see that this, this is me And if you know my name, you should know that I'm in pain Don't wanna ask for much, cause I'll die either way I want to have a place where I can feel like me Oh have I said too much, oh please forgive me They say that I'm alive but I don't see the light I must have been born with a defect in my eye I'll probably be dead soon I hope I'm not alone Cause I don't wanna be cold when they bury my bones I wish God was my friend he probably hates my soul Cause when I turn around I, I am all alone I wish I was a kid running through the trees Cause then I wouldn't know what my futures meant to be Now why do I have life if I am meant to die, If only I knew whyyyy Now back to the rap, cause maybe Then you can hear my voice crack as I hold the tears back And I'm viciously attacked by something in my brain But mankinds to blame cause they forgot To teach me how to play this game called life They just handed me a knife and told me to survive And now I'm in the jungle and I start to fumble And I trip and I slip and my whole world does a flip And now I drift as an unfit, split, misfit And I really must admit I've lost control of my ship, this is it And my soul is read to quit...
