King Dread the Manequinne

Manic.  I am.  never soo happy.  more or less sad.  All my dreams have 
shattered.  Every piece of life a lie.  I let you dress me in labels.  I feel the things 
that you never did.  My descent is slowly down the spiral.  My emotions play me 
the fool.  Sometimes its hard to think.  Memories soo loudly vibrant.  Never soo 
sad.  then yesterday.  Manic.  you are.  sometimes like me.  dressed up by 
others.  wearing emotions that others can see.  Constantly looking for a play on 
words.  Searching for subtle meanings in this confusing existence.  prayers 
spelling the pathetic fallacies around me.  irritated by the presence of others.  
cloud shaped images crawl away.  Tomorrow will be better.  Kin of yesterday.  
presently passing.  Manic
