I can’t breathe, I can’t see, I can’t think.
Everything around me is falling
I’m so sick of running, but I’m scared of fighting
I’m losing this war
Everyday is the same, I’m trying to stand but I’m falling
Something is holding me down
I never liked the silence and now it surrounds me
I’m thinking of giving up, but then I realise
I already have.
