Anguish

Intro

so focused on where you want to be
your blind to the beauty around
try seeking internal happiness
weak and insecure inside
afraid to show who you really are
fear of failure and doubt
you want to change inside but your lost
and do not know how

Verse 1

you want a better life
for yourself and everyone
surrounded by intrusive thoughts inflicting pain on
yourself and everyone
cant sustain a life like this
tormented you want to cease to exist
reflect upon the life you have
focus on what you can control
mind over matter you can not
let this pain take hold
yourself and everyone

cant sustain a life like this
tormented you want to cease to exist

Chorus 1

the burden I have been
the promises I failed
feeling guilty inside
would rather be in hell
I’m living in anguish
the damage I have caused
the friends that I have lost
feeling alone inside
would rather be in hell
I’m living in anguish

Verse 2

I know you hide this so well
you can not fool me I know you like the back of my hand
you can persevere need to believe in yourself
you can achieve anything focus and tune out the rest

Chorus 2

the burden I have been
the promises I failed
feeling guilty inside
would rather be in
hell
I’m living in anguish
the damage I have caused
the friends that I have lost
feeling alone inside
would rather be in hell
I’m living in anguish

Breakdown
you dwell on this mental abyss
you lost your way cant see
clouded inside, distorted mind
you lost your soul searching through hell and back this set me back
your weak and frail inside
focus on what you can control

Bridge

I fear I will never find my way

End Breakdown/outro

the burden I have been
the promises failed
guilty inside
feeling like I’m in hell
I’m living in anguish
the damage I caused
friends I have lost
the lines that I have crossed
