Livin In a Fantasy
Livin in a Fantasy
Hope it ain’t a trap
Voices in my head,
They keep on whisperin:
There ain’t No Coming Back!!
Sucked Down Under
Into a World Always Unknown;
Many, Many, Many Men; They say “You’re Not Alone”
When I get there What do I see?
A bunch of Funky dudes lookin at me
I take a deep Breath
Take a step closer to the fire
It’s Cold OutSide
Liven on the Wire
I let them catch me
Now I gotta be Bold
Take a look around me
My Heart, My life is sold
I try to take a step, my legs a little weak
Everything Around me is gunna make me weep
After Living in Self-Hatred, Imaginary Friends
All I wanna do is laugh here,
What is it? Could it be untainted Love?
Liven in a Fantasy, Hope it ain’t a trap
Voices, oh Voices, in my Head, keep on saying:
“There ain’t NO Coming Back!!”
Liven in a NightMarish Fantasy, Hope to make it out Alive
For all I know, I’m on OverLoad,
Completely Brain Fried.
So Tired from THE STRUGGLE,
Worried, So Sick
My Voices start to do their mommying,
Whispering:
“Just to let you know,
You been a Soldier at War
You have taken hit n hit n hit,
Without Running to the door.
Now You come to a place,
Where the Party looks fine”
They tell me “No More Worries,
No More playing Don’t Drop the Dime”
Thankful But Worried and it begins to show,
The sweat starts to pour, feel a frizz in my ‘fro.
Hopin No one Notices and they don’t start a fight
Not that I’m scared, But I’m tired from the Flight.
I take a step Closer, Closer to the Scene
I relax a little as the stares begin to fade,
I wonder if the workers here really care,
Or are they in it to get paid?
Everyone is Smiling, the guys Crack Some Jokes
My New Life is Just Beginning;
Here at Lamoille County Mental Health’s Wellness Center
Now my life is Lovely,
With friends who Remain True,
And I owe it to those that brought me in, the Noble Boys in Blue.
