They started off with with small taps But then they came with giant axes Chipping away at the foundation of sanity Nothing seemed to be able to fix it. I worked and worked to keep it stable But nobody believed it was possible The more I worked the more it cracked As they went from manual to explosive means Sticks of dynamite crammed into the cracks As they said it was my fault I lack They laughed as I began to fall My hopes and dreams started to be shredded As the foundation of sanity splintered The shrapnel became scattered As it cut up my mind I lost all hope in mankind Then nothing but despair remained I began to turn and frayed I hurt my sled and others As anger filled my mind The glass that was now my mind Guided me to shred others and leave them behind As my resentment turned others Into the same mess as me

Shattered Mind
They started off with with small taps But then they came with giant axes Chipping away at the foundation of sanity Nothing seemed to be able to fix it. I worked and worked to keep it stable But nobody believed it was possible The more I worked the more it cracked As they went from manual to explosive means Sticks of dynamite crammed into the cracks As they said it was my fault I lack They laughed as I began to fall My hopes and dreams started to be shredded As the foundation of sanity splintered The shrapnel became scattered As it cut up my mind I lost all hope in mankind Then nothing but despair remained I began to turn and frayed I hurt my sled and others As anger filled my mind The glass that was now my mind Guided me to shred others and leave them behind As my resentment turned others Into the same mess as me
