Auditory Agitation

Like my engine    my mind's 
          in overdrive
then all my senses seem so dull  
(like a fortune of dirt so dry
so dull -- all on my own)

i'm in a crowd and hear my name
turn around to meet the speaker;
and no one meets my gaze
   oh so now oh now 

i'm numb so numb so dumb
so here i go ; all alone
and within a state of 
mental rape -- mental rape
comes to mind
