Our clocks are ticking. Don’t let our time go to waste.

Clocks ceased to

Tick-

Tock

an eternity ago.

 

How long has it been since I last dreamt?

I don’t know.

 

It is impossible to get a grip,

but I cannot let go.

was there anything to hold onto though?

 

 

 

Why can’t I see

all of the colors you see?

 

Please can I be…

Why can’t I be…

Chloroform free?

 

 

 

What the hell’s going on?

can someone help me please?

my mind keeps switching like the channels on the TV

 

I laugh, then I cry,

NO, THIS IS NOT RIGHT!

 

My enemy is my mind,

invisible,

I don’t know how to fight.

 

This trembling fear,

it’s much more than I can take

when I’m against my own enemy.

 

 

I will burn my house down,

into a horrid ash.

 

I’m going to run away now,

never to look back.

 

What the hell’s going on?

someone tell me please,

why I am switching faster than the channels on TV.

 

My mind is on the fritz,

like the disconnected screen

crackling chaos driving me insane.

 

It is dark

now light,

THIS IS NOT RIGHT!

 

Enemy invisible,

I am losing this fight.

 

This building fear,

I cannot take,

against this echo in my mirror.
