These Twisted Lines

I walk within these twisted lines
Never knowing what I'll see
I'm blinded by this darkness
And deaf from all the screams
My future is so bleak
These vines are in the way
I know that you are leaving
But I secretly wish you'd stay

I fall within these twisted lines
And make no effort then to stand
So I sit here scraped and bruised
Never catching a passing hand
Everything here is dying
And with it, so am I
I'm losing all my senses
Now my faith is running dry

I'm lost within these twisted lines
But no one really knows
I wish that I could give a reason
But that's not how my story goes
Too much of me is broken
The truth been tossed aside
Trusting no one to help me
And fighting hard to stay alive

I crumble within these twisted lines
I just break down and cry
I don't want to hurt anymore
I swear I'd rather die
My voice is lost and fading
There's no one to hear my screams
This is an ongoing nightmare
I can't escape this dream

I carve on myself with twisted lines
And I let the blood just fall
I don't really feel it
So I don't really care at all
Each scar tells a story
Of a promise they could not keep
I went and took my knife
And made sure it went deep

I cry within these twisted lines
And I just feel so alone
My body is so dead and cold
I can't ever make it home
So I wish and pray for freedom
A freedom found in death
Let me let go of this life
And let my body rest.
