Lost In This Phase

Walking aimless through these dark streets
Brings on your fear
Lost again you just don’t know
How it is you got to here
You keep your head held high to not become
Another headline about another death
Killed by those who have no name
They look for weakness to prey on
In the streets they know so well
And you wonder again and again
How you ended up lost and lonely
Like you have so many times
And you pray to a God you don’t believe in
That this is just a dream
Or a pill you didn’t take that night
To keep you from these nasty places
In your crazed Imagination
Sometimes it’s just not easy being
Mad
Things happen in your head
That look so real to you
That your heart might pound out of your chest
And they spill you on these dangerous city streets
That you don’t know
And you’re so afraid
In this phase that has no name within your head
