Drown

Running running running

Through a meadow of my own invention

To reject all I've ever known

To paint myself a new galaxy

A fantasy land to rule alone


But when the scenery changes

And the interior stays the same

And the skin can't be scraped off

And the mental cells hold me prisoner


Then let the anchor drag me down

Let the bubbles catch in my throat

Lungs fighting for the right to oxygen

While disappearing into this endless abyss
