Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

I feel uprooted like a tree from the ground
I feel like my world has been turned upside down

I feel like a blind man with no eyeballs in his socket
I feel like I'm on welfare with no money in my pocket

I feel like there's no end to the pain
I feel as if the sun will become rain

I feel as if I'm the only one
Life laughs so at me so I run

Away from the circus of life
OCD is a double bladed knife
