Living Insane
-
In hopes that I find
The key back into my mind
So I can crawl back inside
And lock myself back up
I look to the sense of it all coming
These thoughts that are on their way
I peal away the skin on the potatoes
And see my heart grip itself
Never knowing just why
Why can't I grab ahold of cognitivity?
Sanity has left me many years ago
Almost 2 decades into my madness
I have seen the pig fly
__much too often
If I knew where to be free
To feel anything else
I would be lost in the fog of it all
Never knowing what was going on
Reality has been stripped from my consciousness
After I build my own nest
For me alone
I will hear the walls soak in tears
Witnessing my sadness for me
As I numb up and not even know
__how sad I am
I will rush thru the depths of escape
Never will I be a prisoner
To my own emotions
