Sadness madness
Gloomy hall
My head is spinning
___________________________
No ground to spot
For my fall
___________________________
Hands grabbing me by my throat
Although I have put on my coat
I hide
___________________________
In my shell
___________________________
Pain is painful
And it knows me well
To call out for help
___________________________
Instead of seeking this place
And these thoughts
To dwell on
___________________________
Eating and eating
And bottling up until I puke
Out on those ghosts by whom I’m getting spooked
Out
___________________________
But I’ve got a pair of scissors
Which I sometimes like to use
When pain gets too painful
___________________________
And then it’s quite necessary
That one gets defense from this abuse
Now
___________________________
No way in and no way out
My prey is now the one that is most likely to shout
And to scream
___________________________
Like being tortured in the most awful dream
While being chewed and spit out
Like a pair of rotten seaweed
