Madman

Trapped inside my own head

With nothing but my own crazy thoughts and dreams to sooth me.

I know the pain of a killer

He dwells inside of me.

I've felt the courage of hero’s

and the strength of monsters

All crawling through this weak and helpless body

The killer is a madman;

Ripping through my translucent skin

He speaks to me at night,

telling me my life has been nothing but sin

My memories are forgotten in haste

As he surrounds my mind with clouds of darkness

I am losing all that is me

Yet gaining something that is entirely different

Something that acts like a rabid animal

and speaks like a calming storm on a summer's day

The madman sends electric jolts along my wondering soul

to help me gain my life's control

I am just an innocent being with a madman lurking through my veins

An innocent that is ready to do what is told

Believing all that is said

Taking in all the lies and what I despise

I am trapped inside my own head

of crazy madmen who are already dead
