The Beast In Me
Trying to find a place
to rest my weary soul
I feel broken like i'm walking on glass
My mind speeding through
this thing we call life
dizzying thoughts collide in my head
I tell myself breathe slow it down babe
but the powers that be suffocate me
with their mind bending visions
Demons lead me astray
voices that screech in the night
whispers I hear by day
To quiet my mind
sigh to quiet my mind
running to and froe through the streets
Seeking ever seeking
some peace of mind
to take me out of myself
Some hiding place
where I can retreat
turn a blind eye for awhile to the beast hiding in me
to rest my weary soul
I feel broken like i'm walking on glass
My mind speeding through
this thing we call life
dizzying thoughts collide in my head
I tell myself breathe slow it down babe
but the powers that be suffocate me
with their mind bending visions
Demons lead me astray
voices that screech in the night
whispers I hear by day
To quiet my mind
sigh to quiet my mind
running to and froe through the streets
Seeking ever seeking
some peace of mind
to take me out of myself
Some hiding place
where I can retreat
turn a blind eye for awhile to the beast hiding in me

To quiet my mind, I take it to another place, I've been doing it so long now that I have come to master it.
I hope you find your escape Crim. Great expression and pen as always. :)

We all have a beast that hides within us just waiting for the moment to bust forth. Excellent work sweet crim.
