A Mind Gone Mad

Hollowed out heart of mine, why so glum?
Will you put on a smile with a bottle of rum?
We'll feel on top of the world; rule the whole fucking kingdom
And from all our worries, we'll no longer have to run

The skies will be limitless, a brilliant shade of blue
No longer questioning what is a lie and what is true
We'll just sit atop our mountain, enjoy the breathtaking view
And tell all our lovely friends they can come too

What friends, you say? Why, the ones in our mind!
The ones that comfort us, when life comes to a terrible grind
Do you remember those moments when you felt in such a bind?
Do you remember those memories that you wish you could take back and rewind?

Well, there were you friends! Standing strong and wise.
For they were your thoughts, for they were your eyes
Those brown eyes that glanced over your failed tries
And the same brown eyes that were open to Lucifer's white lies

Fooled by a demon? Never, you say!
But the demons come ouf of the shadows, 'You have a debt to pay'
'I've repented,' you cry, 'That's simply child's play'
So down into their grasps you fall, a horrible shade of dark gray

Further you go, down and down, looking for the door
But before you reach the exit, look out! Here comes the floor!
The cold tile strikes your cheek, right to your core
And for a slight second, you decide you want no more

No more? Well, that's certainly not in store for you
For your nightmares are just beginning to brew!
You've got a ways to travel before a rescue you come to
So for now, your once pleasant mind will bid you Adieu.
