What Is Wrong With Me?!?

 What is wrong with me?!?

written by: Benedict Hurley

 

Why do I keep letting people bring me down
Why do I keep letting words get to me
I keep telling myself it’s all in my head
I keep thinking others are against me

I find it very hard to let go of paranoia
I can’t do this whole, it’s only words, thing
God please help me get out of this mess
I need to get back to enjoying my life

Nights and days seem to blend together
I can’t see where I’m going anymore
I don’t know how to turn off these feelings
I cry at the stupidest things, my heart hurts

I need someone to help me see a way out
To see where I’m going, to see why I’m sad
To see how I can make things better
Why oh why do I keep going in circles

I can’t keep doing this to myself
I can’t keep finding reasons to be sad
I need to wake up and ignore the voices
The voices have haunted me for too long

Knocking me down just when I think I’m ok
Shaking my confidence when I need strength
I have to fight this feeling of pain
I need to grow a stronger sense of peace
