You'll catch me by the sidewalk sitting down and rocking Majority of people look down but keep on walking They don't understand the pain like electric shocks to the brain That make you forget your name, what you stand for seems insane Where chaos reigns and the brave die, it's easy to get lost Pulled into a vacuum so abyssal the will to live is forgot Where the blood is Paracetamol, where it hurts like it's physical Numb like a vegetable yet hungry like a cannibal Starving where food is plentiful Dehydrated when you're forgetful You know you're mental And it's as smooth as Butter Menthol Attached to your bed like it's the only safe haven Wondering if like a ruin, you're broken and breaking When vultures circle up high and your eyes are gouged by ravens The dark thick ooze makes you realise... you need saving
