Loud voices. How annoying.

No one escapes the box
No holes, can’t breath
No sunlight to see
No hope, can’t leave

Profound how having ears to the ground sound loud
Shouts drown down
Nothings on the other side
Beg to die

There’ll never be goodbye
Stuck here beyond death
Fucked clear to regret

Obsessed with little regrets, don’t believe in hope
Lie to myself, “I’m the best,” “Not a mess,” “I can do this, though.”
Infest my mind with screaming voices testing me
Deafening noises
Definite poison
Stay poised when the moment is pointing three fingers back as I fade to black
In the middle of a heart attack that…
