Battles within self
Time stands still, but my mind is still in motionStanding on land, yet still adrift out on this ocean..
Ocean of love, but torn between hate
Knowing my destination, but can't figure my fate..
Eyes closed tight, but I can see everything
Deaf to the world, still I hear your heart sing..
Following a straight path, but I still walk in circles
Feeling good, yet my heart hurts too..
Looking into the world, and seeing nothing at all
Standing on my own two feet, but off of them I fall..
Trying to be strong, damn I'm physically weak
Forming words mentally, but my lips won't speak..
Asking for help, but pride keeps it in
Asking forgiveness, yet everyday I continue to sin..
I smile outside, but inside I'm kicking and screaming
Knowing all of the answers, but still I chase meaning..
