Chemical imbalance
I woke up one day,
Not feeling up to living.
My reality went astray,
Holding the knife quivering.
Worried parents driving me to a psychiatrist.
Take the next exit.
Before long, cutting wasn't enough,
This marked the day that became my reality.
The wicked world of suicide ,became my stuff,
No one could believe this tragedy.
Worried parents driving me to the pharmacy,
Take the next exit.
Now it's come down to happy pills,
It's still not taking the edge off,
The coke in front of me like...
Not feeling up to living.
My reality went astray,
Holding the knife quivering.
Worried parents driving me to a psychiatrist.
Take the next exit.
Before long, cutting wasn't enough,
This marked the day that became my reality.
The wicked world of suicide ,became my stuff,

Happiness is temporary
once its gone,your own needs kick in to play.
Beauty is ugliness with a mask,
with an underbelly that can blind.

Attention is a parasite,
That will suck the life right out of you.
Depression is an excuse,
to drown in a pool of your own sorrow.
Insomnia is an addiction,
once you start this ritual its very hard to...

I must be on cocaine
You play in my head like a scratched record,,
I have to question my own sanity,
Are you someone I thought up?
Or is this going to end up like it always does?
I wait around all day just to see you,
To Kiss your soft lips,
Run my hand over yours.
To lay my head on your chest.
I want you so bad,
You make my heart feel as if a boa constrictor is wrapped around it.
Everyday that I don't see you,
Is another bullet in my temple.
I feel like I just snorted coke,
The way I feel when I'm around you.
But when you leave,...
