Gears

All these intrusive thoughts that I've been repressing
Can't find the way to go so I'm stuck and I'm stressing
Confronting problems could be confirming fears
My mind is turning over and over like gears

My mind is ticking like a grandfather clock
Can't find the key or what to unlock
Don't know what time it is or where I am
Can't seem to keep up like everyone can

All these intrusive thoughts that I've been repressing
Can't find the way to go so I'm stuck and I'm stressing
Confronting problems could be confirming fears
My mind is turning over and over like gears

You talk to me I'm like a deer in headlights
I have a skewed sense of what's wrong and what's right
I promise I was listening my mind is just busy
Priorities inside my head are making me dizzy

All these intrusive thoughts that I've been repressing
Can't find the way to go so I'm stuck and I'm stressing
Confronting problems could be confirming fears
My mind is turning over and over like gears

I'm dealing with this mental block
Got a therapist, don't wanna talk
They say go take a walk
When I say that I wanna reverse the stock
I'm really not okay
But I'm living day to day
You ask me how I'm doing, and I'll say

My mind is ticking like a grandfather clock
Can't find the key or what to unlock
Confronting problems could be confirming fears
My mind is turning over and over like gears

Living like this isn't the easiest of things
It's not exactly the life of mental kings
Putting on my headphones can't block out the sound
Of the fucked up things in my head that surround
