Transcended, pulled into the abyss
Trapped in suspense societal standards against me
Desperation, it's me against the world
Separating myself subconsciously
Escapism immersing
Poisoning my psyche
Culminated manifestation
Clouded judgement
Restraining inner demons
Maintaining some form of hope
Obtaining true marks of valor
Sustaining internal strength
I lay awake and think about the stakes
I contemplate how much more can I take
At what point will I break
It's a never ending cycle
Traveling in a downward spiral
It's a never ending cycle
I must stop living in denial
How can I put trust in anyone else
If I can't even believe in myself
The hardest thing to do is to look into the mirror
And realize all your problems come from who's staring back at you
You can only see things clearer if you build off of your past
View from a perspective that was different than your last
