Broken High
I was sitting across from myself
In a smoky room with the windows down
I was drowning in fears and thinking of crying happy tears
Just depressed and bored
I was drinking a Rainbow and eating a cloud
It rained all day and bleeding rain
But I was too into my head to care
I dreamed of being awake and awake while I dreamed
I was catching feelings of something cold
Deep in my mind I can't think sometimes without hearing who?
Demon man dancing in my soul and whispers in my ear
I want to part with it
So annoyed with regret
So I ignore it
I was sitting across from myself
Hoping to rebirth this pain
But all I did was stare back at you.
