Madness

Numb without feeling, I drink down the pain Silence spills out, like the quiet that follows a rain Slowly I’m tearing, tear-tearing away little bit by little bit, coming apart unable beat it, to keep it at bay Held captive by the enemy, the enemy inside You may think I’ve lost it, my mind gone completely Spinning, spin-spinning slightly faster than most But more than my mind, it’s my life I hold close Leaving me here, trapped in my own head A fate worse than that of ending up dead All alone I seethe, still painted in your sin Runaway, run-runaway make your escape Such is a dangerous game you choose play But time will give way, as time always does Now on the outside, that what once was locked in Set free from these jackets that bind and soft walls of white they’re in Chasing, chase-chasing my prey I will find You’re more savage, more evil than I ever could be So much uglier than any beast living in me How I long to Introduce you, to the thing I’ve become The monster you created to use, just your toy No longer of need, abandoned tossed aside Fester, fest-fester emotions grow hot Still locked in a box, forgotten left to rot So patiently I’ll wait, just sit bide my time Worth it, every second each slip of the mind Ticking, tick-ticking the hours melt away With the voices building angrier with each passing day But soon enough I will show you the horrors that await Then your laughter, laugh-laughter is sure to abate As your cruel joke comes to a bitter end moments just moments and then, well… that’s when the true madness begins
