Finding madness in life’s bitter dish
Eat like a mouse, drink like a fish
Clinging by nails, losing my grip
Clinging by nails, feeling them slip
Driven insane by worry and fears
Driven to drink that flows out in tears
Frustration and anger tearing apart
Noise in my head, pain in my heart
Limbo the place I’ve come to dwell
Emotions a prison, home but a cell
Thoughts they tumble, twist and whine
Thoughts so odd they can’t be mine
Drown them with the cheapest drink
But drunk or sober, think, think, think
No one to tell the things in my head
Solitary breakfast, alone to my bed
Escape into sleep is only too brief
Ponder if death would be a relief
Struggling on while heaving a sigh
Try to be strong though starting to cry
Did karma bring me to this sorry state
Or a cold, cruel twist of old fickle fate
