Overdose

Post by sprinks41 »

I suffer from OCD and manyyyy of my songs reflect what I go through during my "episodes." this is the most recent one.

Verse 1
I can't breathe I can't get this out
I can't explain and I feel so much doubt
Feels like I'm trapped inside my own mind
Emotions are running wild and the answers I can't find
Not sure where to start I just wanna get to the end
Tear myself apart and never go through this again

Chorus
No matter how many words are spoken
Inside I still feel so broken
The pain just won't go away
No matter how much I take
The pain just won't break
I'm getting close
I wanna overdose
But I know that's not the answer

Verse 2
Curled up in a corner
My life feels so out of order
I get these pills to swallow
But they don't fill the hollow
Spaces of my soul
I'm out of control

(Chorus)

Bridge
The bottle's almost empty
But my thoughts haven't left me
They're still haunting, still taunting
Are you there or just a dream?
My mind is falling apart at the seams
I'm at the edge
Do I jump from this ledge?
Would you miss me if I were gone?
Or have no trouble moving on?
Day after day I wanna sleep
Night after night I wanna think
Where's the light?
Is there a way out?
Tonight's the night
I let my demons out
No more questions
I want answers

(Chorus)
