Leave Me Alone

I bite my tongue
Until it bleeds
Just to silence all the voices underneath
Every mirror in this room
Shows a stranger wearing me
Like my body isn't mine to keep

I can't sleep anymore
I hear them scratching at the walls
Telling me I'll never be enough
So I laugh until I choke
Smoke the feeling from my lungs
While my shadow begs me not to give up
But I'm so sick
Of pretending I'm alive

Leave me alone
I'm rotting in my skin
Every breath feels violent
I can't hold on
Something inside me died
And now the silence sounds like sirens

Broken to the bone
Crawling through the dark
I became the monster in my head
So leave me alone
Before I disappear
Like I was never here at all

I can't sleep anymore
I hear them scratching at the walls
Telling me I'll never be enough
So I laugh until I choke
Smoke the feeling from my lungs
While my shadow begs me not to give up
But I'm so sick
Of pretending I'm alive

Leave me alone
I'm rotting in my skin
Every breath feels violent
I can't hold on
Something inside me died
And now the silence sounds like sirens

Broken to the bone
Crawling through the dark
I became the monster in my head
So leave me alone
Before I disappear
Like I was never here at all
