Your mind betrays you
It’s a prison cell
Every thought a stab-wound
Your mental hell
Driving you inward
Convinced that you’re worthless
No-one understands it
So you’re tempted to end it
If you don’t speak
Nobody will find you
And what will it come to
With no-one to hear you
Your mind betrays you
It’s a prison cell
Every thought a stab-wound
Your mental hell
But silence robs us all
And the price is high
When you’re dying inside
And your friends can’t tell
Fill your lungs to speak
Open up your mouth
Emancipate your life
From a burden deep inside
Emancipate your life
From what fear would have you hide
Emancipate your life
From a burden deep inside
