Double Sided
Emotions numb, I've come undone a long time ago.
In a trance, this is a second chance it's all I know
I've got to make it this time, keep my feelings blind
turn off my heart and listen to my mind.
Mountains weren't made for climbing with string
I've got to have strength to reach my everything
Close doors on dreaming make things happen
Set sail to the oceans becoming the captain...
what about me says the little voice inside my soul,
the free spirit I've buried in the suppressive dark hole,
chemical passivity blocking the energy
staring at the mirror just wanting to be me
I'm a clown with a fake upside frown
changing the ground so I won't let you down
But what about me! what about me!
Validation of my frustration
This is the situation, product of generation
I'm not a robot, someone you forgot,
Pills sedated, I f*king hate it
retching repeat I need to break it.
I can't be a stupid drone
who cares if I'm alone
I'm not the enemy I just want to be me
Break it! Break it!
But what if there's better on the side,
what if I can make if I tried.
teeter on the edge, a thin ledge,
I'm falling! falling!
where ever I will land, that is where I will stand.
for now I'll keep falling, falling.
