im sane but life is a pain

Woke up today, thoughts heavy like a lead weight, Mind racing, heart pacing, can’t escape this dread state, Life’s a twisted maze, every corner feels the same, Fighting demons in my head, they’re playing their cruel game. Nights full of shadows, can’t shake the feeling, Got a mask on my face, but inside I'm reeling, Staring at the ceiling, whispers echo in my brain, Every laugh feels hollow, every joy just brings pain. (Verse 2) Walking through the ashes, where hope used to thrive, Every breath feels like a battle just to stay alive, Chasing dreams that haunt me, like ghosts of my past, Searching for a lifeline, but the die’s long been cast. Thoughts like a noose, tightening with every breath, Caught in this cycle, it’s a slow dance with death, But I’m still standing, though the ground’s so unsteady, Ranting in the darkness, but my heart's not ready.
