Array ( [sid] => 17793 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => What Can I Do? [time] => 2003-05-19 04:35:00 [hometext] => Something I wrote when I was alone at night [bodytext] => There's too many obstacles, too many choices
Inside my head, I hear so many voices
I swear I try to keep my life on track
But its so hard, I can't always react

I'm doing the best to keep myself sane,
But without your help, its just not the same
Suicide crept inside my mind; it stays
I could hear its cold voice whisper its many ways

All these question swirl in my mind
My past stalks me; I can't leave it behind
All of those thoughts and memories takes me breath away
Someday, it will all disappear. Someday..

Should I wait for some kind of sign?
Or take my life away; make death mine
For now, I'll just sit and wait
For maybe, I may collide with fate

Every day, I watch everyone around me
I can't take it; they're all so happy
Why am I the one who can't contend?
Why is my wish for my life to end?

At night I lie in my bed, wide awake
I go insane every now and then, its my sake
I'm so used to it, I don't mind it anymore
Insanity is closer to me now then it was before
