These heavy walls around my heart
are moving closer every minute
and I can't tear them apart,
and I can't think, and I can't bear it.

And I can't move, and I can't leave,
and I'll choke and I'll drown -
oh please, please let me breathe,
I promise, I won't let you down.

I won't give in to my body again,
I won't run away into my mind,
because no matter how much pain
I'm facing, there's more still inside.

My grasp is weakening; soon I'll fall
and then I'll get outside these walls.
