Bottle

So bottle me up
Keep myself inside
Far away from the world

Am I saving you?
Or am I
Saving myself?
From the darkness
Those demons that never cease
To scream my innermost
Murder intent
The things so terrible
So terrible there's no words
To describe them
Blood is only the beginning

Am I running from you?
Or am I
Running from myself?
Breaking mirrors because of
That smile they flash me
One sadistic and unnatural
One never meant for this world
I surround myself in light
But it just fades away
The shadows overcome
The shadows creep closer
Closer to me
Close enough
Too close...

Can I trust you?
Can I trust myself?
Can I trust you?
Can I trust myself?
Can I trust you?
Can I trust myself?
Can I trust you?
Can I trust you?

Keep these chains locked tight
Swallow the key
Bury me six feet below
Cover me up
With pretty words
