my mind is like a steel trap

one i cannot escape

i try so hard

but i feel i might break

i wander the empty streets in my head

no thoughts and i feel so misled

there’s a poison inside

breaking me down piece by piece

there’s no way i can hide

but i console myself

i know it’s true

there really isn’t anything i can do

that’s what i thought

so long ago

when my hands were tied

when i was alone

my head was a rotten place to be

but when i let go

i was set free

there’s nothing that you can’t get through

if you try

so kiss those terrible thoughts goodbye

to all of you who have felt misled

just remember

it’s all in your head
