Life of a Schizophrenic

by mal   May 18, 2008


Am I dreaming or is this reality?
What's the difference I can't tell
Neither one is unrealistic
Both are simply a living hell
Where can you go when your thoughts betray you?
When you can't tell the difference between day and dreams?
How can you live when all those around you,
Have no comprehension of why you scream....
It's not my fault I push you away
I'm not doing it to be hateful at all
I simply don't know what I'm doing
That's why I need you to catch me when I fall
Are you the voice inside my head that whispers?
Or are you the friend that holds me through my confusion
Are you really there do you really love me?
Or is this life just another illusion
Am I depressed or do I just want attention?
Am I hearing voices or is my mind playing tricks?
Everything happening is blending together
You can tell me something but in my mind it won't stick
Teachers say I have an attention disorder
Friends say that I'm a dramatic fool
My mind tells me I'm going crazy
My family thinks I'm just trying to be cool
But what is it really that makes me suffer
Why can't I think straight and hide in my mind
Maybe there is something seriously wrong here
Something that no one else can find
So is this why I hurt people and don't even know it
Is this why I can't ever make a choice?
Can someone please answer, someone real please
I don't want it to be the imaginary voice
Oh god I'm so scared I just can't comprehend
It all fits so perfect but It just can't be
"You're okay," someone whispers
But when I turn around, it's only me
