No Straight Path
I'm driving across the line they are coming head on
When I keep myself busy I can forget that you're gone
Their horn starts to honk as my pulse starts to quicken
I think we both know who will win this game of chicken
Turning the wheel I get back in my Lane
I'm sorry I ever cause pain
But know what you go through
May constantly haunt you
But no one tortures me worse than my brain

Im haunted by ghosts I've created myself
No amount of help
Can stop the loss that I've felt
Do you wonder where I am?
Can you understand?
Im so lost in this prison I've built for myself

Running through the woods. Eyes shut tight.
Breaks in the branches help me feel the light
But how long will it be
Before a tree
Wins out against my lack of sight..

Im traveling a dark tunnel seemingly with no end
Im in need of someone who I can call a friend
What do I do when in need?
I concede
It's ok if you would take my hand

My thoughts have been reigned in close
Chemicals balanced in a now healthy dose
The knife's no longer the answer
Longingly waiting on my chance for
The knowledge of where my life goes...
