...Lithium's chain

Thought the voices in my head wanted me dead
Much more sinister in their desires
Wanting my misery to fuel their fires
Driving me insane in my own mind
Or is it mine?
Can’t seem to find the key to lock away this disease
It’s controlling me in everyway
Some days it lets me play

Locking me away
In chains, I cannot break free
Can’t warn you it’s not me

Killing the dreams we could have shared If I wasn’t
Chained

The
Floor
Behind thoughts I don’t believe
Knowing soon you’ll give up and just

I really like the "drop down effect" that you employed in this artistic ode to being over-medicated. The mind is a complex thing, aye? As soon as we get used to one set of thoughts, an entirely different way of thinking gets introduced to us, and it has a staggering affect on us. Believe you me, medication is not always the answer. Nicely done, my dearest. Queen Reb:).

This was real. The honesty... That feeling of not having control. Having no choice but to watch as the words leave your mouth, but knowing that's not you. This was heartbreaking.
