Something to hold onto

I have one foot on the ground,
And another foot somewhere else,
Somewhere Unknown,
Unfound.

I need something to hold onto,
Something to keep me sane,
Something to make me feel just a little bit okay,
I need something or someone to hold onto,
And I've decided,
The monsters inside my head are no longer just under my bed ;
They're in my head.

I have one foot on the ground,
And another in a strange place,
Oblivious to sound,
Some nights I can't breathe,
And then other nights the monsters try to get me!

I'll take the drugs,
As long as all of my problems are swept under the rug,
I need something to hold onto,
Maybe it can be a simple drug,
I want to feel better,
I want to feel sane.

I have one foot one the ground,
And another foot somewhere else,
I feel like maybe this is hell,
I need something to hold onto,
If not,
I simply don't know what I'll do.
