Back at it again,
To broken things needing
To get fixed,
Trying for the fast lane,
Wandering with the insane,
3 years since you had me
Locked in,
3 years since the looney
Bin,
White halls and empty
Prophets,
How many times did they
Cast something out of me?
Or pray not so softly,
Are we still talking about
This?
I got some hurts you can’t
Heal,
No sorrow comes with
Those pills,
Medicine isn’t gonna
Change the way you
Were to me
Living in the fast lane,
Afraid to rest at night,
Isn’t your job to
Give some peace,
I am not at ease,
Will I ever be?
I’ve been locked away,
Never early,
Late to waking up,
Late to growing up,
Do you have the plan,
The plan for how to be
A man?
I paced and walked and
Fell over screaming,
Had this whole place
Making recommendations.
I am just a patient,
Locked away,
Plugged in so you
Stay away,
Loveless when I walk,
Cold at night,
How many more years are we
Gonna do this?
You had a chance,
A chance with me,
Young and fragile,
Now all my friends
Have friends,
And I still can’t
Make amends,
Here we are again,
At it again,
Fixing broken things.
