The Death of Sanity
One day in life starts and everything goes so right
Then suddenly the day begins to slide
Falling down from what once seemed so good
Now you see was just a rise before the fall
The day of promise only lasted halfway
It was then the spin began
The spin to lead your life further out of control
When you look back you see
It was not only that day that had turned bad
All the good thought you had
May not really be that way
When sitting there at a time when you must
Realizing that there is absolutely no one you can trust
Now you ask...
Why is all this happening?
You are on the edge of sanity
About to break
Feeling like you must run
But how?
You sit with your legs tied down.
Why should you wonder where?
Is there any reason to wonder how?'
Who cares why?
This is the death of sanity!
