How did this happen? What did I do? I try to control it I try not to believe it It happens so fast Not much I can do Manic...x...two I scream and I cry Oh no not again I know the symptoms But they creep up to fool me Tried distracting it Tried to watch TV Walk around and around and Around the room Manic, manic, manic Top of the room feeling panic Whoopee Bipolar is here again Hoping my feet touch the ground It follows me My brain...is not sound It beckons me still Again and again I take the good and the bad Trying to cope Holding out for hope

Holding Out for Hope
How did this happen? What did I do? I try to control it I try not to believe it It happens so fast Not much I can do Manic...x...two I scream and I cry Oh no not again I know the symptoms But they creep up to fool me Tried distracting it Tried to watch TV Walk around and around and Around the room Manic, manic, manic Top of the room feeling panic Whoopee Bipolar is here again Hoping my feet touch the ground It follows me My brain...is not sound It beckons me still Again and again I take the good and the bad Trying to cope Holding out for hope
