In my head

In my head their voices all get mushed together

I feel like they're going to keep on asking me questions forever

My breathing gets faster and my eyes dart around the room

I just want to leave but I know it’s too soon

Every word you have ever said 

Continues to echo round in my head

Because some things are hard to forget

As I’m not exactly an army cadet

Every day, the voices get faster and louder

And you try to sugarcoat it with makeup and powder

This is the only way I think I can escape

But as the voices get louder, it gets harder to catch a break

I hope one day I can leave them all in the past

But by then they might have gotten too fast

One day I hope they can be left on a page to be read

One day I hope to escape from inside my head
