Just need to talk
Living is too linear
But no one is around
They are all hanging around
Those other guys.
Jump up and down
Lights in the room spinning
Music blasts and singing
But I’m sitting in the silence
Writing my thoughts in words
Comprehending madness
Fighting off the sadness
Thought I already beat this
So I’ll just stay and think
What’s left to contemplate
Besides looking for a break
Something I can create and make
Keep this stupid dream awake
Before I begin to sink
Drowning deeper and deeper
In the puddle of my mind
Loneliness can’t confide
And always takes sides
So I guess I’ll just
Stop making effort
Status Quo
It’s all I know
Neither friend or foe
Just something to show
Hoping it will grow
Because I know that
Unless someone else sees me
I won’t even know
Or start to care
Why I’m here
Why I can’t beat this fear
So I’ll just keep on pretending
Finish the signals I’m sending
Hold on to what little’s left
Won’t experience near death
Just the same straight line
But I’ll be just fine
--------with time.
