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
