i’m quietly going a little bit crazy
everything in my line of sight is hazy
don’t know what to do
don’t know where it is i’m going
and you know i just don’t care
i’m falling apart
there ain’t no one to glue me back together
and you know i’m feeling that that’s alright
in a sad demented kind of way
perhaps the torture is something i’m quite enjoying
maybe it’s what i need to feel alive
but baby it sure hurts
like nothing else
not even a paper cut
something’s got to give
and it looks like that something is me
pacing the floorboards
not knowing what to do with myself
can’t get ahold of you
baby where’re you at
total distraction
not getting anything done
total distraction
man, this is anything but fun
you think this is making me happy
my reliance on you for that.
i can tell you i’m not smiling
all’s i’m doing is dying inside
and i can’t get anything done
quietly going a little bit crazy
so tell me please baby
who is it that’s gonna come save me
cause from where i'm standing
i can see that you sure ain't.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

    the second half of this poem is very much a blues piece.. very good cate :)
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    i've been there...

    way to capture it...
    I scream in affirmation
    of connecting dislocations
    and exceeding limitations
    by achieving levitation
