Hidden Demon
It all seems so unreal,
As if it's just a dream,
But somehow everyone you know,
Are sadder than you know.
A group that's just like you,
All trying to make it through,
We're medicated dummies here,
Can barely count to two.
The signs are everywhere,
With heavy eyes that stare,
No motivation showing here,
We rarely leave the chair.
It's time to break the mould,
Don't stay here til you're old,
Break out of here and run away,
You're eyes are dead and cold.
The action's taken now,
You feel alive somehow,
These pills are working overtime,
Release from sadness' shroud.
Your function's coming back,
No more need for the quack,
The curtain lifts to show the light,
Your old self coming back.
Relief is felt by all,
Your friends begin to call,
But somewhere, hidden in their eyes,
They wait for you to fall...
