trauma

I'm haunted by the trauma, trapped in my mind Memories flashing, can't leave them behind The pain and the hurt, eat me alive I try to move on but l can't survive The scars run deep, they cut to the bone I'm drowning in sorrow, feeling so alone The nightmare they come, they never let go I'm suffocating, I can't break this chokehold l try to drown it out with drugs and alcohol My demon keep on calling, they won't let me fall I'm trapped in my own mind, feeling like I'm dead then I wake up in a cold sweat, Nightmare in my head Flashbacks of the trauma, l wish that l was dead But l keep on fighting, pushing through the dead Trying to find a way to heal, to put this all to bed
