The world is crazy inside my mind
Tall towers crumble to my will
The right words I seem to always find
To the ******* my window sill

The great mountains before me sink
And I rise tall above them
To distant planets, I bow and drink
Until I choke and cough up phlegm

I stagger back towards my earth
All things around me are growing
The help I need, here is dearth
A fact that the dead die knowing

The world is crazy inside my mind
I shan't ever go there again.

Push and Pull
Tug and Drool
Scratch and you're done
Who thought you were the one
To act so childish
In this serious manner
The louder your voice
The higher my temper
Breaking point
Boiling over
Nothing to do with me
I'll show ya

Push and Pull
Tug and Drool
Adrenaline courses
Situation forces
Me to be calm
And stand my ground
Who would have thought
That I have found
The hesitation
Of throwing a fist
Knowing the consequences
Knowing the risks
Take a deep breath
And relax your hands
This isn't the way
This is not the plan
When screamed at
Shout louder
This moment is like gunpowder
Waiting for a spark to set if off
And I refuse to be 'er
I may be soft
But inside I'm full of steel

I'm not just some mindless drone
I won't repeat back
In monotone
I refuse the shackles
That before me are placed
A free spirit
Needs its space

I found my mind in the eye of a cigarette
The thing that I curse and despise, the cigarette
The thing that controls my life, the cigarette
I lost my freedom in the eye of a cigarette
