A new duet with a beautiful friend I met at DFWCON Please visit her website and get to know her here!
Written by Veena Kashyap and HastyWords
Hold on to me as I lose control
My mind has turned against me
You are my only hope of sanity
Hold me together as I fall apart
Hold me in your arms
Mend me with your heart
For if you let go
My heart will be battered
My mind will be shattered
I will fall away
Into a dark abyss, an eternal hell
So save me, save me from this
Hold on tight before my life becomes a miss
Despair lingers on a razors edge
Teetering without any kind of fear
Its voice forcefully adamant
Domineering and full of rage
I can hear your attempts to find me
But they are soft and far away
I’m hidden inside my fleshy cage
The cage has held me for far too long
If you won’t come, I will have to find my way on my own
Alone seems like a scary place
But I resolve to walk the path
I won’t let the voices pull me back
No, I will stay my ground, I will not let you deprive me
Of a better choice, the life that lives inside me
