Slave of My Mind

I'm trapped. I'm caught as a slave

Deep in my mind, dark as a cave

I want to get out, but I can not

In my mind, there is a lot

So much keeping me in

Every thought of trouble or sin

They keep me in, I can't get out

A lot flooding in, never a drought

Bad memories are painful

Embarrassing moments are shameful

I'm blocked in with no way to escape

Stunned, not knowing what to do, mouth agape

The thoughts rush in like a flood

The room is spinning, my eyes are red as blood

It's driving me crazy, I want to go

But how? I don't know.
