STOP, please help me, I’m losing control.
I’ve fallen off the edge of serenity and now I lay lifeless in a hole.
My blood is full of hatred, and I’m afraid I’ll hurt someone if I’m not cured
I want to share the hurt I feel, and to you I am lured.

I’ll spin you into my web of lies,
I’ll break your heart to my command you will abide
You wait til I have you firmly under my thumb
I’ll leave your body cold and numb.

Shh, I’ll hold you closely whilst you drink poison from my cup.
Scream and shout if you must, but please learn that it’s better to give up.
Let me torture you the same way these voices torture me
Maybe then next time when I ask for help you won’t flee.

Somebody save me from the person I have become
Teach me how to be a nice little girl who goes shopping with her mum
Let me be taught respect and manners to the highest form of degree
Then watch me focus on my schooling and appreciate the true me

So as you go to sleep tonight say a little prayer for me, the girl that isn’t sleeping
For she is lying in her bed shaking whilst she is weeping
Pray that somebody will save her and that she will learn to live
Then maybe one day you will learn to appreciate exactly what she must live with

the first step is recognizing that you don't like who you are, knowing who you want to be, then go for it!

It's hard work changing bad habits, but anyone can do it

I quote an old quote. "There is nothing to fear but fear itself."
