Self help: Nothing Inside
"Hey! What you thinking? You're awfully quiet,
What's going on in your mind?
You're usually a little more louder than this,
What thoughts are you keeping inside?"
Are the words that splintered into my head,
Woke me from my moment of peace,
These are the words that reminded me then,
That my brain had happily ceased,
From thinking and planning and looking ahead,
From the drudge of the whole 9 to 5,
These are the words that woke me up,
From the void I need to survive,
"Hey, hi yeah naah nothing at all,
Not sure of how much time,
I was asleep inside but wide awake,
There is nothing inside of my mind".
