Less Then Sane

by xxkurtcobainxx   Apr 24, 2006


I walk through the halls
Of my own private prison
Here, in the unhealing hospital
They analyze and judge
And try to help
But they don't listen to one word
Swallowing light bulbs and razors
Gets me a small vacation
Because they say
I'm less then sane
But all I ever wanted was to
Speak the truth
And now I'm going mad
Surrounded by white walls and blue bodies
Staring eyes and singed hair
I can no longer feel
And the pain cannot get in
I lay naked
Robbed of my soul
They took it to the basement
Where it stays in a morgue drawer
The stiff dresses
And assisted suicides
The needles and pills that
Provide displays in the mind of
A pediatric sinner
I watch the candles burn
And scream at the mirrors
And I sit on the bed watching my birds
And I laugh at the straps
And the buckles
But I no longer scream
And I no longer struggle
I wait in solitary
Chewing the food
Chewing the strings
Chewing my flesh
Until I bleed
I watch the water flowing out
Of the silver shower head
And the wetness stings my body
Attempting to cleanse me
It washes off the dirt
And embarrassment
Confined by the bars and plastic windows
My eyes rip
And velvet crimson comes
Seeping out
And my teeth sink into my tongue
Until they send me to my doctors
Who try to make sense of my stories
The familiar faces of human beings
Makes the day go by without
Speed or rate
But any concept of time
Has gone missing
I watch the sun rise and set
Day becomes night
Reality becomes dream-like
The strands of my physce
Are being yanked to
The pleasurable end
They break into the layers of my mind
They find my secret stash
They tease me with drugs and the possibility
Of being numb
They throw my personals in my face
And beg for me to leave their sight
A canine existence
That no one can recognize
Except the trapped persona
That they keep in stone cells
The patients give me fatal warnings
To which I pay no regards
The metal bars of my bed frame
And the twisted sheets
Are my constant companions
I hurl myself against
Concrete walls
Shattering my bones
And as I crumble
I hear the arrival of sedatives
