There are no limits within a dream Insanity at its most extreme Imagination aged the child It made me strong, it made me wild I have ocean secrets growing deep They're mine to ponder, mine to keep Creativity taught and raised the kid It gave me hopes in the places I hid ©

Imagination
I'm running out of time and the clock is ticking fast But I'm trying to erase all the damage in my past I'm running out of time and these minutes never last But the darkness that I face is the shadow that I cast ©

Time
I lie asleep in my own world I remain unconscious in the dead roots of my tree, forgotten by my present essence I lie dormant in my own world I remain subconscious in the lost innocence of me, corrupted by my current presence ©

Comatose
I wander these crowded streets Foreign, reserved, and alone A past memory never repeats Distant, concealed, and unknown My eyes recollect the places But the places appear much older My heart will connect to the faces But the faces appear far colder The strangers will pass me by Ordinary, humble, or proud Their voices will laugh and sigh Composed, quiet, or loud I walked once through this door But the door remains never open I felt belonging here once before But the before remains now broken ©

Rushing ecstasy Intensive flow Rising high Crashing low Raging apathy Falling apart Chaotic outbreak Back to the start ©

Bipolar
Who are we to say that a love is not to be? That a love does not belong and can never be set free? Who are we to think that a kind is not our people? That a kind is far beneath us and will never be as equal? Who are we to feel that a face can look unusual? That a face must be a canvas and be painted to be beautiful? Who are we to judge? To say love is prohibited? To think below of others? To feel minds can be limited? ©

Who Are We To Judge?
They don't know how it feels to awake every morning, and all they can wonder is why they had even awoken They don't know how it feels to pick up all of their pieces, and put them back together but still feel like they're broken They don't know how it feels to say all that they can say, and still feel like there's more but every word has been spoken They don't know how it feels to go to sleep every night, and the only hope they have is that their eyes will not open ©

Depression
I know there’s sadness beyond your laugh and bright smile I feel the brokenness beyond your kind gentle embrace You try to carry on pretending and living in denial But I see the pain beyond your painted colorful face ©

You can't live in a society that is correcting you, by projecting you as their own personal clone You can’t live in a society that is protecting you, but rejecting you when your distinction is known You can't live in a society that is directing you, by expecting you to be a sheep of their own You can't live in a society that is respecting you, but objecting you when your originality is shown ©
