Rollercoaster

Sometimes I feel like a ferris wheel
Never slowing, never stopping
Just moving til I�m motion sick
High above the world, a view to be captured
Short lived as I plummet below
To a darker place I also know
It�s a rollercoaster that I�m stuck inside
A prisoner of my turbulent mind
So moody, unpredictable
I hope you know I can�t control my weather
Pills are useless, sometimes
They slow the roll of the tracks
I wish they�d never go
If only I could jump out and walk
Like the rest of the visitors of the world
Maybe I�d watch the wheel from afar
Or find some other line
But I�m a spectacle
Riding a nightmare
Known as my head
Waiting to break down
