OCD and Me
My mind is weak
Like a lost sailor I can do nothing, nothing as the waves of anxiety swirl through my head
Get up, time for school
I cannot go for I am a fool
The O stands for obsessive
The C stands for compulsive
The D stands for disobey and you will pay
The thoughts, oh the terrible thoughts grab ahold of me
They are like race cars zooming in my brain, around and around the track the go
when will they just stop!
I don't know
Get up, time for school
No thank you
I am a fool
I cannot take it anymore, but I must somehow
The pain, the sorrow its too much for me
Please oh please, someone set me free
"You can do this,"
What was that, a little voice in my head?
"You can do this!"
My friend! I thought you were dead!
I get up, as tired as can be
I get up, I Get up!
I set myself free
The thoughts are still there, but no anxiety
I push out the bad
I think about the good
The anxiety runs away like a scared dog
As I always knew it would
The O stands for obsessive
The C stands for compulsive
But the D, well, the D stands for determined
