Poems Not Inkblots Professor

Somebody got the best of me
I'm only half a man
Simple mind on overdrive
but i do the best I can
Something turned me inside out
I don't know if I'll ever love
choking on soo many complexes
don't think you'll ever figure me out

Somewhere inside this intention
is a remedy for this confusion
Inside of this sensation for fools
is the way to my absolution
How can I close the door on these tears
from the nights of such conclusions?

Something hiding in me
I can see with my eyes closed
a piece of soul I don't know
hiding away forever
more of me then I'll ever know
but I don't know the reason
water it to let it grow
but sanity chokes the seasons

Smothering the lies in their alibis
Something's got a hold of me now
looking through the absolute
Somethings got a hold of me now
