I can see you beside me,
in my peripheral vision,
Always right there,
Always aware,
Of this manic depressive conditionThere's a fever burning up in me,
I'm tangled up inside a sinking feeling,
Slipping out of touch with the controls,
It's all intrapersonal.Lay my head down,
Try and sleep now,
Can't slow down my mind.
Close my eyes, try to find,
A train of thought I can hop,
Out of the mess I grew in my head,
Afraid I won't know how to stopAnd I want to know,
And I want to know,
And I want to knowNative delirium,
Are you a daughter of
This new insomnia,
My hypochondria?
Wilt me just past the bloom,
Pull up my deepest roots,
A graceful poison like
a wave of vile blight.
There's a fever burning up in me,
I'm tangled up inside a sinking feeling,
Slipping out of touch with the controls,
It's all intrapersonal.
