Collection "my head" Piece 9

I can’t breathe anymore,

My lungs don’t function,

The oxygen to my brain is cutting out,

My hands won’t stop shaking,

Too many breaths per minute,

Screaming,

Screaming!

SCREAMING!

To breathe!

I want to breathe,

Lungs, start up again,

Brain, start letting yourself back in,

Hands, stay still,

Breaths, calm down,

Stop going insane,

Let me take the wheel again,

Let me have ME back,

Give me my LIFE back,

Stop holding me hostage in your sick games,

Screaming,

Screaming!

SCREAMING!

To have my sanity!

Peace only comes in moments,

Shoulders have gotten too heavy,

My chest is imploding in itself,

I want to breathe again,

Please, take the weight.
