I heard 300 songs
which were 3 minuets long
then six days later
My memories were gone
Just some spotless thoughts
of how the future might be
If I walked away
from the former me
So, I hit rewind & ran away
to try & find
my yesterdays
That was then & this is now
Still I live
in a thoughtless cloud
I can't remember the past
& every time that I try
My brain takes a break
until a part of me dies
No imagination for me
or
Games of fantasy
When even my dreams
are scene in 3-D
"Living the dream"
until I moved back home
Now,
It seems like I'm sleeping
not to feel so alone
All the souls I used to play with
are just ghost's in the machine
A virus I must deal with
while I wipe the slate clean
In a rush to get away
&
find my former self
So desperate to improve
my state of mental health
Now,
I'm one hit away
Wondering: When will it come?
As I swim through this grey
In search of the Sun
Holding my breath
in this cold~unending
So desperate to break-thru
& give up pretending
cause;
I'm tiered of kicking
& waving my arms
with nothing left in me
to sound the alarm
S.O.S. couldn't reach me
&
Charity won't help
cause;
No one can hear you
when you're all by
yourself
Screaming under water
Crying in the rain
I've been out for so long
I'm in need of restraint...
