the art of escapism (aka how to run away from your problems entirely) i want to scream i want to rip my throat out i am powerless limited by my own head i try to speak but suddenly my mouth feels numb although it's not like anything useful comes out of there anyways all i feel is dread i sit and i repress and inside my heart is pounding and i'm paralyzed by a crushing sense of doubt but on the outside i confess to nothing i want to run away to unplug my brain even for a few minutes of precious solitude where i can't hear the buzzing inside my mind but there's no way out there's never any silence not even when i'm alone in fact it's louder than ever i distract myself and pray for a route of escape but unfortunately my brain didn't come with any instructions
