Believe

My heart won't stop pounding
He's gonna hear
I know that he's tracing me
By the smell of my fear

My mind constantly racing
I can't think of a safe place
I don't know who to beware of
I've never seen his face

Here comes the sweat
And boy its gonna run
I know I'm running in circles
But I know I'd better run

Here comes the breathing
On the back of my neck
I can feel his hands
Reaching for the back of my neck

Here comes the knife
Slicing down my back
I can feel him climbing inside
I'm under attack

My mind stops racing
My heart beat is slowing
He's looking through my eyes
He sees what the world is showing

There utter despair
The ones that don't care
The ones with no homes
The ones left alone

Emotionally broken they can't love self
Refusing to share a smidgen of their wealth
How can you see me standing on the brink of death
And refuse to save whatevers left

The banks are showing their greed and the don't care
We're financially strapped but they don't care
They've already been repaid for this loan
But yet through interest they took our home

I've swoar an oath to truth
Pledge myself to only you
But you tore out my heart
And I now know that pain is true

The pain was so intense
The depression was so immense
Who ever he was, whatever he be
Suddenly decided he didn't want to be me

The everyday life of my world was to much
I could feel him stroking my mental with a gentle touch
I felt my back reopened, he was trying to leave
I locked him back inside like a pet and named him "Believe"
