Why can't I understand The things that are happening. It's when I try to understand That makes me feel unhappy. I'd rather live in a dream, Soar in a book, Than live in this world. Rather than look. See, I'm not really happy Though it may seem. I'm just a prisoner, Trying to break free. Bound by the chains Of Sorrow, Death and Grief. Falling apart Like a broken leaf. My heart beats To a broken rhythm. Holding onto my sanity, Trying to stay with them. Broken Understanding.
