Behind My Eyes.

evil within me.

you can feel like one of the tallest people in the world,

you can have friends that you see and talk to every day,

you can have a family that you know cares about you.

you can have friends on the internet that you know are always there for you no matter the time of day.

you can still feel so alone even knowing all of this and no matter what there's nothing you can do.

you can feel alone in a crowded room,

you can feel alone surrounded by friends,

you can feel alone in the arms of the person you love.

you can feel like a broken shell of a person,

you can feel like the most insignificant person on the planet.

no matter what you do to feel "happy",

you'll always have that voice in the back of your mind telling you that:

you're worthless,

you're invisible,

you mean nothing,

you do nothing but hurt people,

you don't deserve to live.

you'll find yourself agreeing with that voice that you once thought was a monster.

you'll start believing it,

you'll start enjoying its company,

you'll think of it as a friend.

pretty soon you'll find yourself calling out to it as you give up and your breathing slows and your heart stops.

as you're fading into the black you'll realize that voice in your head is you and you were your own worst enemy after all.

and the last thing your voice tells you is that it's won.

it took you down and there's no coming back.
