Defining through my own type of madness
Feet failing me
Body buckling
Every moment gravity weigh weigh weighing
Every moment, knowing it is not the moment
Looking into the darkness
And praying to see light
Praying to see a way forward
Dancing in a circle
Hand in hand
Smiles on faces
Do memories like that happen again
There are so few chances in life
To be alive
Why couldn’t you know
That this moment
This moment right now
Might be the happiest of your life
Never to return
In the waking time
In the lost time
Sniffing the air
Hoping to smell it sweet
How am I How am I How am I
So flawed
How am I How am I How am I
Not the person I want to be
To know to know
The right way forward
And feet failing me
Brain failing me
Failing myself
Falling into myself
Falling
Falling down
Falling
In that space again
The dark space
Chest tight
Eyes open
Can’t I BE better
Can’t I be more perfect?
Less flawed
Less me
Stare into the mirror
And the void stares back at you
Medicated again
In control
Not thinking,
Or, not thinking about thinking
Brain free
Dancing, living, flying
Tomorrow can go fuck itself
Dying Killing Ruining
But no pain right now
No pain no pain no gain no pain no pain
Don’t got anything on my mind
Not even my mind
Free free be be free free be be
Fly die high cry sigh lie fry fry
Let it let it let it let it letitletitletit
And we all fall down
Can’t we do it all over again
I would
I would
I would do it differently
I would be different
I wouldn’t be myself
Out of my head
I would be a different head
Sacrifice my magic
And the weight weight pain
Sacrifice my magic
Sacrifice my magic
Sacrifice my
Sacrifice my
And we all fall down
Anonymous in the streets
Free
Feeling
All these ghosts whispering past me
Brains screeching in their heads
Is this what everyone is like
Is this how everyone feels
The scream of my mind
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Give me a helmet, yeah!
Shut up
Shut up
How are we all standing so high
All this gravity
All this weight
How are we how are we
Why are we
Why are we
Punch myself
Wake the fuck up
More less, less more
Up down, scream, bleed
Free
Free me
Free me
Bleed me
Free me
Free
Do do do do
Do you feel like this
Can’t I ask you
Am I the only
The only one
Am I the only one who has these thorns
Digging into my thoughts
Hate me hate me look down on me shit on me hate me the the the the the the the the the
Motherfucker
Let me escape my mind
Let me escape the mirror
Punch it hurt it fight it bleed it scream at it
Hate it hate it
Fly it fly fry
Can’t we can’t I can’t can’t
Do you feel like this is this what you feel like are you feeling alone can I be there for you doesn’t everyone need someone there can’t we we we be be can’t we just say yeah yeah yeah
I love you because you are worth loving
You shouldn’t hate yourself
Don’t cut yourself
Let me take those hands
And hold them
And look look look look
In your big old eyes, seeing that fear
Wild
Reflected in both our eyes
Let’s fight the world together
I won’t be alone with you
You’ll never be alone with me
We are not separate
We are not one
We are the answer to each other’s question
The ying to yang
The sun to moon
A dream a dream
That when I wake
And I see the others the others who live the dream
Dancing gracefully
Hands that gently touch
Hugs that look comfortable
Let me glide through my ice
Strong strong
What could break through my fortress
When I have spent my entire life
Breaking myself
No purpose on stepping on a broken glass
You’ll just cut your feet
Dream again
Walk out again
Smile again
Do you see my darkness
Let me flee the darkness
My complaints and sadness and and and
Let me flee my darkness
Self made prison
My defenses atrophied
The easiest chains to break
Flee myself
To become myself
Not look at those who I wish I could be
But keep climbing
Keep praying to see the sunlight
Pretend my chains are wings
And I will fly
I will fly
Free from me
And then find the sun
