Today I Stand

I don't know why I do
the things that I do
I say mean things
that I know aren't true
I have no say over
what happens in my head
I hear them saying
that they want me dead
It feels like a raging
battle inside my mind
I always feel like
I'm stuck in a bind
Such a tangled web
that I do weave
I don't know how
to make them leave
Sometimes they allow me
to come out
I really don't know
what that's all about
They always have
total control over me
It's scary to know
that no one can see
They're always talking
they never quit
I really do think
that I might be sick
I feel like I'm trapped
stuck in a cage
Deep in the darkness
lives the rage
I'm ready to fight now
I want it so bad
Give me my life back
I'm done being sad
I'm done letting them
always have their way
I'm taking a stand
and today is the day
