I've Lost My Mind

Have you seen my mind?

I can't seem to find it anywhere.

It's too dark to look in the shadows behind

and the faces in front of me intimidate with stares.

Help me look for it, would you?

It's not in the bushes, I checked.

Maybe it's at the beach, and got all wet?

Billowing billowing billowing the wind blows

Is it flying through the sky?

Losing memories and knowledge as is goes

Please tell me there's a reason why.

Please tell me there's a reason I've lost my mind.

Tell me it's not just because I'm weak.

Tell me there's something beyond the daily grind.

Tell me life isn't always going to be this bleak.

I would ask the Doctor, but can't find the right timing.

I asked my peers, who all told me to quit whining.

I cried to my Mother, who suggested I find the silver lining.

I told her I would try if the darkness wasn't so blinding.

I keep looking for sanity's blessing,

for my grip on reality is lessening.

My wishes are real and my effort is too,

but those faces around me keep telling me what to do,

and their voices, god their voices,

scrape and crash within my empty skull.

They want to take my choices, they're MY choices!

I need them, please don't take them all.

You found it didn't you?

My mind is in your hands.

I want it back, what do you intend to do?

Hand it over, I won't let you make the plans

Everything's blurry, is this your doing?

I can only see in one direction.

I can only hear your voice.

My brain is riddled with your infection,

and I no longer have a choice.

But I'm not the only one who doesn't get to choose.

Take a good look in the mirror, what about you?
