It sucks to have your mind at war with itself.
It eats you up inside and drains you, all that's left is a tired, jaded, lifeless body.
Confronting it only makes it worse, although it's what you have to do to make the pain stop.

A lot of things can numb the searing pain, a lot of things can distract you.
Things like school, your friends, and what not.
But when you're no longer busy, it creeps up on you,
and then clings on to you, and then you know it's still there.

It has to leave.
