Thrown For A Loop

written by: OurSacredHonor

Thrown for a loop, I feel like a fool
Drowning in a whirlpool
Of emotions, it's taking me under
I'm forced to wonder
Confusion
Disillusion
I can't take control
Driven up a wall
I'm going crazy
Thinking maybe
But it can't be
I'm stuck in a daze
Lost in a maze
Of paths to take
The smiles I fake
To hide the dilemma within
The enigma still engulfing me while I wear a silly grin
The problem doesn't disappear
Because the problem isn't a problem here
There's something inside of me crying to get out
Clawing and scratching, beginning to shout
I want what I can't have, I have what I need
Can I have both? Or is that just pure greed?
Talking again
How, why, and when
Did this happen?
Just all of a sudden?
A moment, day, a week, month or year?
The memories they burn until my eyes begin to tear
Sinking into a blackness so dark, dank and cold
Look for someone's hand to hold
To pull me out of this downward spiral before I crash and burn
Somebody needs to explain to me, teach me because I must learn
How far this will go
Does anyone really know?
Who's to say?
I'll find out some day
If that hand reaches out to me
Pulling me from beneath this treacherous sea
With the words buried so deep down inside
No longer can they hide
Feelings they must at last be released
Or my soul will regret and never will my mind be at ease
