Voices

It’s too much, the noise the noise the noise

It’s too loud, my eardrums it destroys

My heart is racing and I feel like crying

I want to calm down, god I’m trying

Rocking back and forth is an analogy of me teetering off the ledge

I need to calm down before I fall off the edge

The noise is too loud, I can’t think

I just wanna go deep into the water and let my body sink

I need peace and quiet, my mind is too loud

The voices won’t stop, my mind they cloud

I can’t take this, my eyes are darting everywhere to find the sound

But it’s nowhere to be found

I thought the medicine was working, but it is not, the opposite honestly

I gave it the benefit of the doubt and it was costly

This is the last time I hope too much

Cause nothing good happens with such

Hopefully when night arrives the voices settle

The noise will dye down like when you turn off a kettle

Or maybe they’ll stay as I enter the night

Hopefully everything will be alright
