Relief

I'm so bored I cant breath
I'm so bright I cant see
I feel things you wouldnt believe
All I'm really lookin for,is a little relief
I feel choked on the depth of your insanity
I feel numb to your vampiristic profanity
I'm sick of uncertainty
all I'm really lookin for is a little relief
I like to sleep so hard I dont dream
I like to drive so fast I dont think
I smoke so much I cant sing
and nothin is givin me relief
no nothing is bringin me relief
I hate victims that profess their agony
but maybe thats who I've come to be
Cause in a world full of punishment and punishers
I'm lost trying to find me
yeah I dont profess any illness
but I'm so far from surety
I'm never gonna find willingness
to get out of this mind asylum
banging on the walls and lying
I keep the faith
and lay awake and pray
but all I can ever say
to this part of me thats a theif
is cant you give me some relief
cant you give me some relief.

Thanks Ian and Marsnik-I always try to write in song style. Thanks for the comments.

With the refrains set strategically in place, your theme is song material. I love the search that you take the reader on to find relief! How do you spell relief? Peace of mind! Thanks for sharing!

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
