i feel like i'm not in my own body,
there is a puppeteer controlling me,
inside my brain feels all kinds of knotty,
it's getting to a concerning degree
it is like living life from the outside,
every day is a repeat of events,
running on a hamster wheel—same old ride,
in my conscience i feel a great absence
all the time i feel like i am not real,
i'm a side character with no real face,
no identity and nothing to feel,
when can i finally win my own race?
        depersonalization disorder
        my mind a victim of mental slaughter
