Voices (what it's like)

Folder: 
2004

they hurt me

they make me bleed

invisible blood from an invisible cut

and invisible pain from who knows what

if I'm not asleep, if I'm not dead

if I don't laugh and I cry instead

if I am alive and I am well

then tell me why am I in hell

there are voices in my head

telling me that I'm dead

making me choose

a sort of self abuse



and no one knows what it's like

and no one can make it all alright

no one can make them stop hurting you

and no one knows how you feel

the pain is all too real

and no one can break through

and no one can save you from the voices

and all the piercing horrible noises

and you really try

and no one can go inside your head

and knock every one of them dead

and you want to die

thats what it's like



I can't open my eyes

I am dying inside

the light is killing me

stinging my eyes

and I can't listen to them

the noise pierces my head

every little sound

I'm feeling so dead



the voices are killing me

they are hurting me

they are beating me

they are burning me

the agonizing pain

is driving me insane

all of these noices

please save me from these voices

I get Joy from the Lord Jesus Christ,I know in this life time because of sin in the world we all will hurt,but He says come to Him all those who are week and weary,carry His yoke for it is lite,call on Him and He will set you free...I'm sorry if i intruded and if so just ecnor this,but in my life i found Jesus and He listens and won't turn us away,we strive to be like him and we suffer here on earth because He did,and one day he will come and take us home and wipe away all our tears.
