Walking on a tightrope wire, Below my feet is a sweltering fire Do deny this aberration would make me a liar A cacophony of voices dancing in my brain Trying to calm my body to make me sane Can''t stop the thoughts from becoming a deluge of rain My body is in constant motion Swaying as if a squall in the ocean Trying to keep control of my emotions Lights so bright its making my mind shriek My thoughts so fast - a lightning streak I never want to leave this mountain peak Taste and sound is so profound Running with my feet off the ground Everything is spinning round and round I never want to come down and be found Dizzy river quivering, Neurons are exploding Dopamine is overflowing, Like a volcano exploding The electricity is about to hit the pool Never wanting to lose control is the rule The meds are not my tool Trying to dampen me is cruel I am wading in the depths of hell Keeping mind closed - I will never tell The trazadone makes me all but a shell Blazing embrace welcomes me with open arms The singe of my skin feels so good it never harms The lunacy is a necklace of charms Admired, but conspired the pitchfork pierces my skin The loss of control is my shield from sin... |
