Welcome to my haunted mind,
I have a story to tell
Gather close, now hush my dear
I haven't the strength to yell.
I have played this out so many times
I know the story by heart
It seems to me, a never ending film
Where everyone has their part
I play the fool
and dance around
doing cartwheels till I puke
I try to stand, it starts to spin and then I hit the ground
They sit and laugh
Fingers pointing at me
faces glowing with happy dreams
I pick myself up, I look around and then I begin to flee
Where are the doors
each window I have tried
I run in circles
until I find a dark corner and hide
They don't talk to me
but they see me there
I scream and yell
This isn't fair
But then I go quiet
curl into a ball
in my dark little corner
I learn to make sense of it all
One day I come out
It's like I never did go
I pick up where I left off
it's always, on with the show.
