Lock me up
and melt down the key,
I'm schizophrenic
can't you see?

of course you can't
you've only seen me insane,
not the other me
not my pain,

sometimes they blur
you see it in my eye,
I reply with a quick "nothing"
and force it to die,

I'm serious when I'm alone
and the sadness is instantly there,
I try to mask it
from all that care,

But recently the line that seperates
has strained, cracked, then shattered,
you've seen me cry, breakdown
all torn and tattered,

the sleek silver shards now tear at me
my minds destorted everything,
I keep feeling clawing at my arms
but brushing off nothing,

Deeper into the dark abyss I go
beams of oncomeing pulsating light,
beckons me to their side
control is now for what I fight,

for all the lights swarming around
none lead to an exit,
no roadmap for my mind
just lost and loseing it,

a jigsaw puzzle
with no final picture,
a knife slicing red runes
for no reason I'm sure,

Will I be ended by this
all this insanity and maddness,
maybe the cure is simple
just a kind word or a sweet caress.
