Crying asylum,
swallows me whole.
White coats surrounds me,
taking control.
Forcible pills,
from lady insane.
Swallow them down,
or wrenching in pain.
Rooms smell of *****
and ***** and such.
Banging your head,
it drives you just nuts.
There's Sam in the corner
counting the bugs,
Alice walks around
giving false hugs.
Look, standing there,
Mike's tearing his face.
Sue's so surine,
screaming in space.
Lights go dim
bed time is bout.
Voices are silenced,
cuz the needles came out.
Strapped to my bed,
I am piercing the dark.
Orderly walks by,
sharp as a lark.
Lying all quiet,
alone and not proud.
A squeal from the speaker,
quite vocal and loud.
Scurry in the hallway,
drinking from his cup.
"Dr. Smith to the Psych Ward!!!"
"Hurry, the patient woke up!!"
