Mixed Mind

Sweating rivers as it pours down my face, frantic, nervous, alone I wait.. Waiting for what...What is not worth waiting for, it's already too late Promises, promises to death do us part, my rapid beating heart Paralyzed in this corner, eyes wide shut, as I continue to fall apart Blood I taste my swollen bitten tongue, clenched teeth in me I scream Without the sound screams stick in my throat, oh no tearing at the seams Why me, why me I didn't do anything, But I am chosen the selected one Misunderstood the question son, it's not fair I swear I'm over it's done Crying mixed in salt sweaty tears...and fears...I'll never escape from here I will die by the hand that's what is said by all of the voices in my ear It's coming they're coming as my chin hits the floor I can't take no more Is that creaking from the floor, suddenly catapulted up and through a door Ahhhh safety, white room, padded walls, and my favorite stainless steel bed Paranoid scizofrenic, visions of the dead, and all of their voices stuck in my head
