In Your Mind
He told me " the pain is all in your mind"
So I hit him in the head and said "it's in yours now too"
Deep breaths and bitten lips
as I try to walk away
one more pill to dull the pain
how long can suffering stay
opiate receptors relaxed
there's a soothing in the air
calm has flanked hostility
and lies within the fear
barren paths of crisis crossed
where love has up and gone
filing out in feeble steps
no one's won or lost
