Schizophrenia
I look at myself and see no hope
Grasping for reality I can't cope
The voice rules my every waking move
Taking my sanity with each little groove
Leaving me senseless and not thinking right
All day long and all through the night
All it does is tell me to die and do it now
Because there are no friends anymore
Alienate whoever is left and make them mad
Then the voice won't be anything but glad
It says that they get in it's way
To rule my life every living day
I want this thing inside my head gone
To live my life by right and wrong
But it will not let me go or let me live
It is just easier right now to give in


Elisabeth Stover 1995
