Amnesia Asylum

I go into darkened places where everybody hangs out getting mighty and high

I feel like paranoia is consuming me from start to finish as I taste the vulgar air of life inside a mind likened so much like a prison

With my friends by my side they tell me I am doing fine but if you really want to know more you cannot hide and run away

You have to read between the lines and show me an open door that will lead me to the inside where you can stay

I am feeling kind of lonely here inside the asylum although you are right there beside me not knowing what to do or what to say

I know that you are here somewhere near but I can’t see you with my eyes once so true and no words do I hear you say

Sometimes I wonder if this crazy place is real or fake or in my case maybe it’s just a lie

For I seem to be lost and lonely inside these walls and windows of the asylum a place where I don’t want to die

I remember the first day as well as I have forgotten tomorrow.  I remember the dreams I left behind

For every wish I made there was sorrow as I forget about the past and can’t face tomorrow

No memory can escape and no emotion can tell the way it is and the way it was

But if I can fall asleep right now and close my eyes, I am sure I can find my way back to you

I am not fine, I am not fine at all for I can’t remember where I have been

I know this place is dark and dirty but I really don’t recognize any one as kin

It’s like it never happened but yet if feels so real to me I cry as I feel roaches crawl on my skin

And if it was real how can I be fine without you’re by my side unless you aren’t there and this is all a lie

Did I wake up with amnesia or did I forget my dreams in some twisted way

If I walk a little closer to you would you stare and push me away

I forget all the little things we have done and where we have been

As time slipped away from me, I can’t hear a word you said to me even yesterday

If I am dreaming wake me up so I can see shake me up so I can see

I didn’t mean to leave you alone but alone and insane I appear to be

I remember a tear or two running down my face the other day

But the memories will never come back to me as time seems to slip away

So how do I escape this asylum I am trapped in and how do I break my dream

If I woke up right now would I recognize you again? Would I be able to see?

I remember the day you left me, I remember the day you cried

But for the life of me I can’t remember all the reasons why
