My mind:

Mon, 08/17/2015 - 02:24 -- Zmthall

My mind is wired differently,
There are so many things that you don't see.
The way things are inside my head,
Would make even the strong wish they were dead.
I don't know why I think this way,
Nor can I make it go away.

My mind was just wired differently,
And I guess this is how it will always be.
I guess it could be from all my pain,
That makes my mind just stay the same.
Maybe it's my doubts or fears,
That draws my mind back to the tears.
My mind is just a confusing place,
Where many would get lost without a trace.
Walking the twisted hallways of pain, doors with no numbers that all
look the same.
Lost in the darkness known as my mind,
Searching forever, but never to find,
The answers I search for, lost in my mind.

Maybe I'm not alone on this struggle,
And others also share this trouble,
Of getting lost inside their head,
Making them wish that they were dead.
If so then I would like to try,
And live my life until I die.
When that day comes and soon has passed,
I can only hope to see at last,
That everyone actually thinks this way,
And then my brain won't run astray.

But if that day comes and I don't see,
Then my mind must be wired differently.
If that happens then I won't know,
And my mind probably won't ever slow.
My mind will never cease its ways,
And will continue torturing me throughout my days.

Maybe my mind really isn't so bad?
Could this just be a new mental fad?
All these thoughts will never cease,
And let me live my life with peace
But since my mind fires all day long,
I guess ill just have to play along.

Are you thinking my mind is the same?
Then just step inside and play its game.
Try to pass its cheating ways,
That drive me crazy everyday.
See if you can make it through,
Or lose trying like I always do!
