Here Inside My Mind

You think you know them and then you find
So many secrets and so many lies
I spilled my heart out only to see
That I am alone, it’s only me

I’m tired of opening
The door that was locked
Only to be forgotten
And only to be mocked

A patronizing stare
In time you will see
The role of the fool,
Is played by you, not me

Don’t pile the trash on me
That you can not take
While I receive something
That’s too little too late

Don’t darken my doorstep
Don’t occupy my mind
I’m sick of caring
Sorry I tried

Go take your cocaine
Go sniff your sno
It erases the pain
When you’re feeling low

I can’t sit and listen
To self-pitying cries
Of someone whose living
A godless life

If you’re life is so bad
Then why do you smile?
Put on my shoes
Before you walk a mile

I’m cutting connections
The chain that used to bind
Staying where it’s safe to hide
Here inside my mind
