Madness

This pain I feel

In my head

Daily pain

In my head

All the time

In my head

It’s driving me to complete madness

It’s making me flirt with

Uncommon thoughts

Uncomfortable thoughts

It’s making me flirt with

Common thoughts

Comfortable thoughts

It’s making me contemplate

Wrong decisions

It’s making me contemplate

Easier decisions

Just to ease the pain

If only for a moment

So when you look at me

Do not stare in owe

Do not witness innocence 

Do not hear without listening

Just recognize the pain in my head

Recognize the everyday madness

That I’d rather smash my skull

Into a concrete wall

Repeatedly

To relieve this daily pain

To relieve this daily pain

Over

And over

And over again

This madness in my head

No relief

Sleep

Drugs

Sprays

Steroids

Blockers

Infusions

Injections

Stimulants

Antagonists

Stimulations

Biofeedback

Acupuncture

Interventions

Supplements

Modifications

Electrocutions

Neuromodulations

Amputate my head

Be done with it

Rid of myself of this daily pain

No more

A lengthy sleep

A definitive sleep

A permanent sleep

Is what I forever seek

To get myself out of this

Madness
