Do you know what it feels like to go mad And to know there's no way you can stop it? For those thoughts, they race to no finish line; You can't convince yourself it's make believe Because it's the only reality Your shattered mind can still some what process. There's that-but no, this-but then-no-shut up! My hands begin to quiver, fingers pressed Against my temple; they slide down my cheeks, Cold, lifeless almost, if they weren't moving Involuntarily, out of control Like my thoughts of utmost insanity. How do I know I'm insane then? Because Of the looks I get, the judgement is blunt And I was taught better one time ago When my brain understood some more logic. I'm going mad, sharp breaths, desperate thoughts I want to stop it but I just cannot. This is what happens when mind scares the heart And all that is left to do is escape.

I'm Going Mad
Do you know what it feels like to go mad And to know there's no way you can stop it? For those thoughts, they race to no finish line; You can't convince yourself it's make believe Because it's the only reality Your shattered mind can still some what process. There's that-but no, this-but then-no-shut up! My hands begin to quiver, fingers pressed Against my temple; they slide down my cheeks, Cold, lifeless almost, if they weren't moving Involuntarily, out of control Like my thoughts of utmost insanity. How do I know I'm insane then? Because Of the looks I get, the judgement is blunt And I was taught better one time ago When my brain understood some more logic. I'm going mad, sharp breaths, desperate thoughts I want to stop it but I just cannot. This is what happens when mind scares the heart And all that is left to do is escape.
