The Dangerous Art of Overthinking

The storm is close, how to survive?
The waves go high, so does the tide
The earth is quaking, see the walls falling down
And the end of the world is near

Bracing myself to say goodbye
To pack my bags, run out of sights
All of a sudden I realize it's all lies
That's my mind playing tricks on me

Here in the dark I'm feeling lost (so lost)
I'm dancing with my inner ghosts
My brain's a prison and I just cannot take it anymore

(A burst of insanity)
(I can't think coherently)
(Drowning in this void of mine)
(With fears amplified)
Bring me back to reality
Call out my name and catch me
While I fall astray
(Drag me away)
It's up to me, I can't deny
To turn the tables, change the rhyme
It's tough, it hurts but there is no other way
To defy the distress inside

A part of me day by day dies
Too hard just to rationalize
The sleep of Reason only monsters produced
But I don't want them all to stay

I think I'm losing all control
Upon this stream of random thoughts
Regrets and shame seem so real
A super-ego so severe

(A burst of insanity)
(I can't think coherently)
(Drowning in this void of mine)
(With fears amplified)
Bring me back to reality
Call out my name and catch me
While I fall astray
(Drag me away)
Bring me back to reality
Call out my name and catch me
While I fall astray
Drag me away

(Rage coming in waves again)
(Why do I always fail)
(To change this odd state of mind)
(This is the last time)

I'm fighting against myself
It takes so much strength to rise up and break these chains
My tears are vain
