Dam

This isn’t me

I’m just not the same

I’m just an animal

And these pills keep me tame

I’m looking at the walls

I see my old self in a golden frame

But when I see my reflection

I see a lot of what should be shame

Little by little

By hallow heart becomes badly brittle

I don’t know why I am accused of these crimes

I’m telling you I’m noncommittal

I’m trapped in a zoo

Why am I the monkey in the middle?

I just got to solve these problems

And it turns out I am the riddle

It really only is myself, that I have to blame

Looking back and looking now, at what this all just became

I know I’m loosing quick, but this is all fair in game

But I’m burning out quick, like a match or a fallen flame

I think I’m spacing out

Or maybe I am spacing in

What the hell is going on?

When will my life really begin?

I’m spun out of control

Please help stop me spin

And get all of these goose bumps

Off of my scorching skin

 

Dam

I’m in a mist

I’m in a shroud

All my sins come pouring on to me

Like a roaring cloud

I’m soaked in all my fears

Searching for an answer

Inhaling the seducing cigarette

Taking in the cancer

I’m just trying to relax

I’m not trying to be dumb

The only thing I want now

Is for my pain to numb

My system isn’t working right

So right now I need to plumb

But if I add everything up

Positivity is the sum
