Afraid from Synthetic Happiness by Placeholder

To take an image of your love
And raise yourself and others above
Everything you see
Will make you feel an awful load
Of desperation to become
The one you want to be

It’s still so easy to remember now
Staying at home and feeling

Afraid of where my mind will take me
Afraid of taking off
I can’t wait to put the past behind me
I hate what I’ve become

Was scratching at the wall for reasons
To take my life before the seasons changed
I tried it all
Was sent away to lay my head down
Forced me to stay but all they heard was
Begging to go home

It’s still so easy to remember now
Hospital beds and feeling

Afraid of where my mind will take me
Afraid of taking off
I can’t wait to put the past behind me
I hate what I’ve become
