Going Through Changes

My mind is going through changes Like a broken thermometer's temperature ranges I had to break out of my mind's cage To sit here and write a new page But see the days pass in a haze Because life is really just a maze It's amazing and soul shattering When anxiety keeps battering I just want to shut off my mind So I can say I'm doing fine, you'll find But now I have third man syndrome As I'm slowly guided back home The walls are slimy and broken With memories awoken There's a leak in the roof overhead Splashing on to a forgotten bed In this place that I left behind Yet it's all I have to remind Myself how hard it really was To evade the fluorescent buzz To stand in this dilapidated place As reality looms before my face There truly is to be no going back So I have a mild panic attack This is such a familiar script But my will to go on has shipped So I shift through the trauma And decades of drama So my mind can go through changes Like a broken thermometer's temperature ranges
