Because Maybe I'M Just Crazy

I'm struck with a feeling
I can't shrug off
It's been here 3 years
Like a rusty old lock
 
I quit popping pills,
Though I'm still in fear
That I'll never escape 
after all these years
 
And I
Wish I didn't feel so alone
In my mental state confusion
 
Because
No one is willing to feel this pain
It cannot be forgotten
It only starts again
 
Because I forgot about the days
When to work was just to play
When I couldn't help but feel so free
Because I wasn't ruining me
 
So for the first time ever
I got on my knees
And asked to someone I don't believe
In something I can't even see
 
Right at that moment I felt a breeze
In my heart, and someone said, 
"Remember"
 
Because I forgot about the days
When to work was just to play
When I couldn't help but feel so free
Because I wasn't ruining me...
