Bleed Out

My hands are up

Cause I'm in this cycle again

Writing thoughts of a pessimist

I lack clarity

I resorted to

Letting the ache contort my well-being

While I'm fighting

For the love that's left in me

Cause I can't seem to loosen up

(It's killing me)

This misery is comforting

As I bleed out

I'm spiraling

It's bringing me down

It's bringing me down

They say to understand this life you must experience pain

To carry a cross with near unbearable weight

Do not tread lightly

Do not be afraid

Anger's led by fear

While Hate's led by anger

The suffering is led by the hate

But what

Would it cost to change

The way I think

To have

More trust in you

And more

Faith in me?

Cause I can't seem to loosen up

(It's killing me)

This misery is comforting

As I bleed out

I'm spiraling

It's bringing me down

It's bringing me down

Is this process all that's left for me?

And what am I truly willing to leave behind

To make amends with melancholy?

Cause I can't seem to loosen up

(It's killing me)

This misery is comforting

As I bleed out

I'm spiraling

It's bringing me down

It's bringing me down

On the way up

I'm spiraling

As I bleed out

I'm spiraling

It's bringing me down

It's bringing me down

It's killing me
