Pressure

Now I know just how bad its gotten

I feel the pressure

Raining down on me

The weight of the world,

Heavy on my shoulders.

My problems flooding into a pool of tears

Upon the floor

Drowning me in the darkness.

How much longer can I take it?

I’ll stand just as long as I can

Here on this edge.

But be warned I’m slipping, falling away.

Away from here

Leaving me senseless and numb

Now I have no where to turn

No where to go, not even a place to hide.

Who will save me?

When the pressure is crashing

Down on me

This cold sensation wraps its hands around me

Dipping me under in flames of confusion

Leaving me here with all the problems

Its tearing me apart from the inside

Though I'll show it on the outside

Only put on my mask, start me charade

But it hurts

Pierces through my heart

Now I know just how bad its gotten'

I feel the pressure.
