Mental Illness

<b>Fright</b> Step, step Breathe, they say, breathe But you can't The muscles are so tight You can't move Sweat runs down your forehand Stomach heaves Heart stops And you think That this is it You're going to die And you wait, wait For an eternity And you live But in fear Will It Be back again? It comes randomly You never know When you'll be There again So you live day to day Try to smile Try to be happy But no matter what You're always crippled again Huddled on the floor Or slumped against the desk Sweaty, trembling, ill Why won't it go away? <p> <b>Fly, Crash</b> Liquid happiness Technicolor The world moves at 300 MPH Keep up with me, Keep up! The world is mine I can fly, I can create I talk fast My mouth can't even catch up I'm free Then, I fall down Hit Earth hard I fall into a deep dark pit The Demons reach out Sink their claws into me Spew nasty words You're ugly, worthless Standing 5'1'' 135 pounds You need to die I cry, cry so hard No one hears I want to die, so I grab the bottle Swallow lots of Xanax I'll get better soon <p> <b>Voices, Outside and Inside</b> The Voices are back again They're telling me things Don't take those pills That's right, cheek them They'll make you sick No! Don't swallow! Cheek! That's right...Good And the rest of them The Outside people They're coming for me Going to hurt me Kill me Throw me in dark places So I run, run away And when I snort that white powder That I love so much The Voices don't come back No one hunts me... ...Yet They are here They lurk behind the couch They hide in the toilet bowl Help me! Don't let them kill me Fly, fly, away Don't let the come back I fall, sink, can't get up And it's her voice That pulls me from darkness Back into light
