ESCAPE

I think my mind needs help,

I often hide myself inside myself

In a place where I can lie and hide myself inside my shell

I can't talk to you, I'll come unglued, can't think or breathe or yell

Don't know what to feel, cause I feel everything, it's hard to tell

All that you can see you're labeling with your expectancies

Want to be myself, but secretly I think you'd laugh at me

But not everything that I think is the way it seems

Swim into my dreams to escape my reality.
