Sitting alone at the top of these stairs I ponder the reason for my existence In a world where lies are truth and truth is rare I'm searching for motivation to stay persistent My thoughts drop bomb shells through my mind I hide in trenches of sleep to undermine The endless mine field that is my time here Thinking I should do something of my youth While waiting for my time to tick by My hours are spent in a fruitless search for truth What will I do when I find it will I start being alive Or on the contrary will I see it's time for me to die If there's no one there to do it will I decide to suicide What would I try there are so many different ways to die Will I drink cyanide Or simply close my eyes See what happens When I ponder my existence I fall into a spiral of thoughts much too intense For a young fresh brain like the one inside my head I'm messing myself up is it too late to step away I know right on the surface It is too late My body's at the top of these stairs Fourth story And my mind is some place else I can't fix the lens I see the world through Is it broken is it warped or is it perfectly true Do I see the world as it really is Is everyone else blind Are you the one who's crazy Are you leaving me behind I twist in my seat And tap my restless feat I need to get up and run Jump into the sun Leave this room with these putrid aliens Why will try to control and contain me Why are you forcing me into this box I won't fit too many loose ends STOP
Just let me spill onto the carpet And when the sun comes out I'll evaporate That sounds like a horrible way to go It would be so painful I'm sorry for the puddles That turn into clouds Then when they're too much of that They drip back onto the ground It's an endless cycle of agony That goes round and round I feel like a puddle Turning into a cloud The best of me floating away Leaving a boring stain And ugly mark the only thing left To remind us of the pain
