Asylum

I want out of here
But it seems as if I cannot escape
This horrible asylum I call my mind

The place where all past pains
And current terrors run amok
And the place where unwanted memories
Keep on reappearing

I want out of my mind
But it seems that I can’t
Jump out of my head
And I just can’t outrun the past

It seems that no matter where I go
And no matter where I turn
Fear and terror seems to find me
And take control of my mind.

I try to get away
But it seems as if I’ll never escape
This dreadful asylum I call my mind.
