At War With Myself

What’s wrong with me
Why didn’t I see
Why didn’t I listen to myself
I think of what I did
But it’s like watching someone else
Detached from this body
I struggle to live
Without my everything
I got nothing left
Except maybe
This cursed breath
I lack what it takes to go on
A house divided
Will never stand
That explains it all
That’s why
I’m about to fall
I’m a besieged man
Tormented
By the demons that surround me
But now I realize it’s all on me
Cause I’m at war with myself
Completely split
Two opposing sides
That I can’t define
Distinct nonetheless
Beyond reconcile
The both entrench
In preparation
To fight my battle within
I hope to one day
Get out of this deadlock
I feel like I’m getting torn in two
Ripped apart at the seams
Caught in an troubled balance
Between the edge and the wall
Between having and losing it all
Between standing and a desperate fall
Tearing down who I was
Trying to keep who I am
Trying to fill the void
Suffering from the pain
Of being toyed

Wayne, I am sorry you are having such a struggle. Let's pray the good man wins. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other toward your goal and don't look back for any reason.
