Tooth and Claw

[eternalscribe]

Tooth and Claw

It's hard sometimes
To escape the worries
The shadows that plague my mind
I know that the words I hear
Are nowhere near to real
But sometimes...
Sometimes it feels like
Blood-tipped claws are ripping into me
Tearing my mind open
Whispering their poison into my brain
Fueling my worries and my fears...

Gashing and tearing
Spitting poison into every crevice they find
Makes me want to hide
Pull back into the darkness
Try to make sense of it all
Overanalyze everything
While the mind's blood flows...

I hear the talk
Hear the worry
And I want to hide
Hide and cry
While I worry about it all
Try to make sense
Out of something that isn't even there...
