Lost In My Own Mind

Just when I figured I'd find my way
I see that I've lost what I wanted to say

I thought that I'd figured it out just right
But here you come in now looking to fight

Now let me make this perfectly clear
Your presence is missing you're really not here

Your body is not here its only your spirit
But your voice is so loud I can't help but hear it!

Why can't you just leave and stay away?
I can't deal with you now, you bring me dismay

You come and you go whenever you please
Its my head that you screw and my body you tease

These feelings I have are so intense
But the problems they cause are too immense

In my own mind is the safe place I go
No restrictions there..fast paced is the flow

I have so many things locked inside my head
Some make me happy and others I dread

Another train coming and there I will ride
With even the things from which I must hide

Don't you know that the mind is a fragile thing?
It's there that I live to escape your sting

If I lose my way will you be so kind
To come in and find me....lost in my own mind?
