These Feelings Inside

I've been living so long with these feelings inside
That I almost believe that they're me
I've been drowning so long in these feelings I hold
That they've carved the course and carried me--all along--wherever they go

These feelings inside--subtly clenching at the reigns
Again won't let the love or the joy get near
I missed it when it wasn't here, it came, and now it is gone
I am now staring at the darkest of my fears

These feelings inside--they turn the day into night
Things were brighter and were better once upon a time
I can scream into the void and I can scream at the sky
I have finally realized that the truth I knew was always a lie

These feelings inside--stubborn as I mourn in the dark
Crying for the death of this place
Made of stone, but intricate and absent of thought
I've always felt so lost in this cold

These feelings inside--blocking old memories
I call out for an angel, someone who knows the real me
Dead for the last time--I condemn all these feelings inside
I want the reigns, I want the right, to burn it all down

These feelings inside.
