The Devil Inside

I've given up on myself
The devil is in my head
As you know I’m not in very good health
The darkness and loneliness only seems to spread

The shadow of myself has fallen behind enemy lines
I don’t even know myself anymore
I’m on a downward decline
Drowning in my own hell & war

The light has gone dim
I've give over my soul
All I had, was taken from me
I’m fighting for control

I mask my feelings by laughter
But in my eternal silence I cry for release
I sold myself to the highest bidder
How on earth can I find peace?

There’s got to be a way out from this mundane existence
How did I become so powerless?
All I hear anymore is my own solace and silence
How can I not feel so hopeless?

Rejection & heartbreak is all I have to feed on
This jail cell that I’m trapped in has too many locks
I long to see the clouds and to feel the sun
This life I live in the devil’s cell-block

I can totally relate to feeling like this it's nice to run into a mirror of emotions sometimes......
