Schizophrenic Maniac


Doctors say I have schizophrenia I answer back with a simple "ha''. Parents are worried sick. Acting like I'm losing it. It wasn't my choice to be locked up And maybe I am a maniac With these voices in my head I'm sure I'm feeling quite mad. Everyday it's the same Doctors saying it's going to be okay I don't feel that way, so it's not okay. They are all out to get me and nothing helps. These voices in my head keep saying I'm mad. I'm loosing it, I am a schizophrenic Maniac. I can't help but to agree Since these voices are smothering me. Yet, here I am wanting to change Taking the medication to help me be brave So when the voices come back I'll be be able to attack Making sure to quiet them down. That way I won't drown.
