How I Kept Fighting Myself For Better Tomorrow by ClassicNG: 8:36am On Jul 09, 2016

I'm fighting myself Trying not to break
Trying to put on that smile
But its getting kinda hard to fake
Hidden painful experiences were locked up inside
Scared to tell anyone, I blocked it up as I cried
No one seemed to understand
My depression was getting way outta hand
Food was the only thing I control
Drinking and Smoking became a hobby
As I was sinking further and further a deep hole
Bad experiences I thought I was the one to blame
I no longer wanted to live, had nothing else to give
Here I am, fighting myself
To shave off the shame of my deeds
How will I get out of this? Oh how?
Before I fall into destruction itself
So I'm fighting myself
Against all the odds
And I'm begging for help
And I'm begging the gods
A saviour, Oh I wish
The best amongst you to pull me outta this mess
Someone!!! Oh someone please save me
Lest I die in the war fighting myself
Let the sun come out;
With its brightness comes hope
Hope for a better today,
Hope for a better tomorrow,
Hope for a better me.
