Distressing mind
Simmering thoughts
Seeking emotions
Live, live, live
Numb to the stimuli
I just need more, I just need more
And if not now
I'll crave until you obey
You will become a slave
Of your own demise

A moment of silent,
A timeframe to detach
Fall into the nothingness that we are
And wake up to a promise anew

I will forget, again and again
That this is who I am
That the prison is still there
Even if in a different form

I am my own worst enemy

Where do your choices start and the influence of your surroundings end? As if they are not contingent, part of the same string of reality. We are the consequence of what happ...
