obsessive compulsive disorder
March 4, 2009
OBSESSIVE
My brain says I'm a watermelon falling from a tree,
because it knows I'm far from a falling apple.
It tells me to be this way and the force takes over,
I have to listen or "it" will happen.
COMPULSIVE
The force that controls me.
Check something, walk away, come back, repeat
Check something, walk away, come back, repeat
Count one, two, three, one, two, three
Touch, walk away, come back, touch again
My brain says I'm a watermelon falling from a tree
