• I am barely hanging on.
    I feel just one step away from losing my mind.
    Only a ghost of my previous self continues to exist.
    I do not know where my spirits have wandered off to.

    I know not what I do or say.
    I understand myself the least.
    I am just one step away from losing my mind.
    Let us just go ahead and end the suffering here.

    It is driving me crazy that I cannot speak my mind.
    I cannot speak my mind because my words refuse to come forth.
    I honestly do not know what causes this.
    This is a complete and utter mystery to me.

    Can someone help me figure this out?
    Can someone save me from myself?
    The words are just itching to get out.
    My throat is scratchy in my efforts to keep it all inside.

    I want a scream to rip my throat out.
    I want my meat and bones to show.
    I want to be completely exposed.
    I am truly afraid of it all.

    I am a clueless jerk.
    I know not how to behave.
    The ways of my heart are a maze.
    This is just how I am.

    What you see is what you get.
    The real me refuses to show.
    I want it that way, yet I do not want it that way.
    I maybe would like to keep people guessing.

    I lie just to get by.
    I lie straight through my wilding grinning teeth.
    My lips utter all lies and not an ounce of truth.
    I like to think I am not like water.
    I do not know, but maybe I am like water.

    Someone save me from myself.
    Someone come to my rescue.
    I want to find myself.
    I want to know who I really am.

    There are different versions of me.
    I am one step away from losing myself.
    The world has taken over me.
    I am no longer of morals or injustices.

    I no longer care about anything.
    I know I should care more than I do.
    I am just one step away from losing it all.
    I have been tossed about.

    I am all banged up.
    My guitar strings are broken.
    I can no longer sing my heart out.
    I want to, but I no longer can get a word out.

    Someone come to me.
    Someone appear and save me from myself.
    I am wandering around a world full of nothing.
    I am trapped inside of my head.

    I am just one step away.
    Nothingness has kidnapped my heart.
    My heart may never see the light of day.
    Everything may never turn back to normal.
    I am just one step away from losing everything.

    I do not care and yet I do care.
    I have become more and more lifeless over the years.
    Life has been cruel to me.
    Love has been cruel to me.
    I want to get away from it all, yet I care way too much.

    I cannot stand for the way I feel and yet I just allow it.
    I am here and yet I am in another world.
    It is a world of my own making.
    I am just one step away from losing my sanity.

    I am just one step away.
    I lose it all and yet I make it all up.
    Maybe I can do both.
    To lose is to fade away.

    I am just one step away.
    I am just one step away from losing my sanity.
    I cannot help it.
    I wish I could just let it all out.
    I never want to return here.
