Funny when your mind won’t quit
And goes off on its own
Everything else takes a hit
When it’s dark and you’re alone
Shadows lurking, waiting
For your tired eyes to close
Anxiously awaiting
To take you as their own
Worry, doubt and anger
Are the first things it digs up
Reminders, threats and danger
Of every time that you fucked up
Takes you on a journey, a long painstaking stroll
Through nasty thoughts inside your skull
Like a filthy, disgusting troll
Fulfilling dirty deeds until it’s appetite is full
Leaving you in shambles
A shell of who you thought you were
Till life, and all its gambles
Beat you until you don’t care no more
