...Faulted Memories

Chaos of my illness-ill-defined
Calamity of a broken mind
Twisted within
A reality with infinite bends
Running from the pills choking my soul
In the darkness I smoke my bowl
Therapists determined to reign in my terror
Parents reinforce my life was in error
Psychiatrist whispers as I sit outside the room
We need to bury this boy in a mental tomb
Thorazine haze of a life razed
Its me you have betrayed
Rage is just a transition
I battle this mental prison
I make a mental incision
Broken by pills thrown away
I hear what you say
Take his soul away and put his mind at ease
His humanity a disease
Castrating my mind under a midnight sun
Foreplay of a chemical shotgun
My blood doesn’t run red
Too many chemicals while strapped to this bed
Today I finally feel alive
Tripped into reality
Colors a calamity as the world pours in
Feelings engulf my sanity
I belch out a laugh as I am the calamity
Scorching the world with dark thoughts reborn
Revenge of one…Scorned
Chaos of my illness-ill-defined
Calamity of a broken mind
Twisted within
A reality with infinite bends
Running from the pills choking my soul
In the darkness I smoke my bowl
Therapists determined to reign in my terror
Parents reinforce my life was in error
Psychiatrist whispers as I sit outside the room
We need to bury this boy in a mental tomb
Thorazine haze of a life razed
Its me you have betrayed
Rage is just a transition
I battle this mental prison
I make a mental incision
Broken by pills thrown away
I hear what you say
Take his soul away and put his mind at ease
His humanity a disease
Castrating my mind under a midnight sun
Foreplay of a chemical shotgun
My blood doesn’t run red
Too many chemicals while strapped to this bed
Today I finally feel alive
Tripped into reality
Colors a calamity as the world pours in
Feelings engulf my sanity
I belch out a laugh as I am the calamity
Scorching the world with dark thoughts reborn
Revenge of one…Scorned
