A View Into My Catastrophic Mind


I think I'm losing my mind

Time and space aren't aligned

At least that's what I think in my head

Losing breath at every contact

Do I have to sign the contract to be perfect?

 

Overdosed with loneliness

Needle me down

Forget the hard times

As I sing my songs loud

I feel proud

But noone hears a sound

 

As my blood boils

And my tongue sits in soap

I try to control my thoughts

Desperate to live and to forgive

Forgive the one's who's done me wrong

 

Take over me,

Give me the key to happiness

Break down the wall

Rebuild it all

With a bridge to cross

 

And after all the pain

I was done with being insane

At least that's what I think in my head
