As always, I'm laying on my bed That is not yet used the way it is supposed to be Instead of sleep, it supports my unsettling weight during nightly activities And even though it appears unliving, I feel the need to apologize for my actions Despite my repetitiveness And insanity, that others would perceive uncontrollable My motions, although unchanged and just as chaotic Are now paired with a head more secure in its place And I went out, a shock, isn't it? The company of voices didn't win my attention completely tonight Opposing their guidelines, I found others to interact with And in returning, i was met with long faced whispers Why the invisible frown, I would ask, if question would receive answer But I know fully well that conversation in their dictionary is commenting or narration And I know well the gist of their answer From insults jealously thrown, in attempt to dim my replenished glow They can't give me that happiness Even worse, they can't possess it for themselves So they try to distract me by provoking emotions, sadder in impact Hoping that I disembark this roller coaster of pure delight But tonight, as I said before My head is secure, holding mind safe within No tricks or reverse psychology can prevail I'm enjoying the ride, and I'm not getting off.

As always, I'm laying on my bed That is not yet used the way it is supposed to be Instead of sleep, it supports my unsettling weight during nightly activities And even though it appears unliving, I feel the need to apologize for my actions Despite my repetitiveness And insanity, that others would perceive uncontrollable My motions, although unchanged and just as chaotic Are now paired with a head more secure in its place And I went out, a shock, isn't it? The company of voices didn't win my attention completely tonight Opposing their guidelines, I found others to interact with And in returning, i was met with long faced whispers Why the invisible frown, I would ask, if question would receive answer But I know fully well that conversation in their dictionary is commenting or narration And I know well the gist of their answer From insults jealously thrown, in attempt to dim my replenished glow They can't give me that happiness Even worse, they can't possess it for themselves So they try to distract me by provoking emotions, sadder in impact Hoping that I disembark this roller coaster of pure delight But tonight, as I said before My head is secure, holding mind safe within No tricks or reverse psychology can prevail I'm enjoying the ride, and I'm not getting off.
