A fragile mind

Aa Harvey

A fragile mind

 

 

A fragile mind slips down a slippery slide;

The abyss is calling us to come on inside.

The darkness needs you; it needs to feed on you.

Still we are falling, we pass straight through.

 

 

No comfort blanket rescue, no saving grace;

The fear is calling, come into this place.

Deeper we sink down into the abyss;

Deeper and deeper we are sinking within.

 

 

A fragile mind keeps us locked inside;

No way out of your own head,

Now your mind is out of time and on the line.

 

 

No more stepping forward, life at a stand-still;

No warning and no rise, just the constant fall without the thrill.

No work at all from the engineers inside your mind.

They have all gone on strike, or gone home;

You are blind to all kind and alone in your own zone.

 

 

Negativity breathes into me, like the dusk it creeps into existence.

Now darkness is all I can see; what truth is there to find

Inside a head without regular maintenance?

 

 

Broken pieces form memories;

All the things we wished to do, we never did.

No hope left to guide us through the darkness;

We are trapped inside a fragile mind, so we sink down into the abyss.
