My life is weird Nothing feels right All that's going on in my head is a war I sit and smile But inside I'm screaming Crying Pleading I don't know what's wrong I want to know Please Dear God above Make this stop What's going on anymore? Heck if I knew Things aren't what they used to be Can things just go back to normal? But what is normal? I don't know if I know what normal is I don't think this is it though You keep saying that you're doing what's best Maybe for you, but not for me I wish you could just truly see What's going on inside of me

What's Going On
I knew her in youth's folly; The fumbling hands, The tumbling wills, The limbs entwined kind of peace; The dinner glances, The unbridled dances, Commando skirts, Deep knee squats, What one thinks But will not say. I've screamed into an empty barrel, Ran barefoot where I shouldn't, Slid rusty things under my nails, Touched my eyes with sharp sticks, Ground my teeth with electric power, Scorched my skin beneath the shower, Turned informer on closest friends; Drank turpentine and kerosene, Mercury and gasoline, Tore my skin, rend my entrails, And other parts clearly unseen. Include, if you wish, An immortal soul. My spirit, ****** as well. Call the prayer, sound a bell. That was heaven, Now is hell.

****** If I Do
The voice in my head Is a cruel monster Ripping away at my brain And filling the open wounds with horrible thoughts As the wounds heal I can hear his voice Screaming out to me Telling me murderous thoughts When will this stop? The pain, agony and brutality I have no one here to help me Because no one dares to reach their arm out And pull me from the fires of hell So here I am Fighting my own battles Day in and day out Hoping I come out alive When will I be okay again? When will he leave my head?
