Path Unwalked

Been everywhere, but no where at all
Headed down a path that's not there
To a place inside my head
Trying to find myself
Only to lose everything I had
I lost my sanity
The hand that held my heart
I lost my mind on that rocky road
Lost control of emotions
I never knew were there
Through my double vision
I see things I want to see
The outstretched hand I run to hold
The heart I yearn to keep
I see my imagination run astray
And my insanity keeping me alive
These things are not real
They never will be true
Headed down a path, but motionless I stand
Look around to see where I've gone
Been everywhere, but no where at all
