Weird faces surround me
Twirling voices twist my mind with fear
Signs of seizure appear
Eyeblinks into hours
Hours into years of malady
Haze of insanity

Thought staggers in turmoil
Muffled laughter blends with daunting screams
Until absence redeems
As if in a nightmare
Dead end lurks behind each turn I take
Though they say I'm awake

[chorus]
Every day trying to get away
From this disarray
Withered hope of a better life
Of steadfast peace of mind
Grim walls stare at me in disdain

Unstoppable cyclone
Chaos steers the wheels inside my soul
Everything appears foul
Real world is collapsing
Every gasp I reach for breathing air
Suffocate in despair

Sometimes it clears
Reverie takes place
Before the next wave of disease

[chorus]

Falling downward in vertigo
The emptiness below
Will soon expand and drown my woe
