Ten Seconds In My Head

By darkness_descends

CONFUSION

I know but I don't
I'm up but I'm down
I'm here but I'm there
I'm wrong but I'm right
Is it day or is it night?
I know everything about nothing
And nothing about everything
I'm headed left but I'm headed right
My world is upside down
Or maybe my world is right side up and I'm upside down
I wear my heart on my sleeve
But my sleeve is hidden
So many tears I cry
But my eyes are dry
I'm alive but I'm dead
Confused yet?
This is ten seconds in my head.
