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
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

Combining the Ferris Wheel and a Roller Coaster
is a fitting depiction of the travails of being Bi-Polar
i feel.
