Forever sinking

Every time I try to fix it
I only break it more
Every time I reach for something
I find myself at the floor

I’m drowning in this emptiness
Can’t seem to find my way
The darkness takes me over
And I’m lost every day

I used to be so full of life
But now it’s just a shell
I’m searching for some meaning
But it’s just an endless well

I’m tired of this emptiness
But I can’t seem to break free
It’s like I’m stuck in quicksand
And I’m sinking forever, can’t you see?

I’m all empty, what else can I spew?
Dry heaving everytime I think
This thought is rupturing my head
Should I stop this brain from working?

I need to find some peace of mind
And fill this void inside
But it seems so hard to do
And I don’t know where to hide.
