*Hello... hello... hello...
Is there anybody in there?*
I feel trapped
And unable to nod
To indicate my being
And no, I can't hear you
I'm too
*well I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again*
Too lost
In my mind
To stop my own pain
*ill need some information, first
Just the basic facts,
Can you show me where it hurts?*
My mind
And heart
Are being torn away from each-other
And becoming separate entities
With different wants
*Just a little pinprick.
There'll be no more,
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
But you may feel a little sick.*
Can't feel worse than now
I'm sick already
And dying inside
Rotting inside my own mind
*can you stand up, stand up,
I do believe it's working, good.
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go.*
Temporary reliefs
From my cryptic beliefs
On death
And how close I am
Dead enough to be decaying
*There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse*
Of happiness
And what life could be
A merry me
And cheerful world
In that moment
I saw peace
*I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.*
But, I can be content
With temporay relief
I have become comfortably numb....
