Mind Over Matter

Something is off with me
Quick to make a scene
On a mental leave
Breaking down mentally
Pick an option, please
I am begging on my knees
Picture perfect trinity
Me, myself and I is all I need

"Mind over matter" is what they always say
I don't even matter anyway
Throw me the rope and don't let me choke
Or just walk away and let it go

"Mind over matter" it's all just chatter
Hearing them scatter when I shatter
I am my master but wearing a blindfold
Head of the home but outside the household
Where did my key go? I have a deadbolt
Here in my head, it's locked up and shackled
I am a person who has a certain
Longing for something behind the curtain

"Mind over matter" is what they always say
I don't even matter anyway
Throw me the rope and don't let me choke
Or just walk away and let it go

I am a version of myself I hate
Look in the mirror and say it to my face
I see who I am but choose to look away
God, I hate this game
I am a growing creature of knowing
Every year I can feel myself slowing
Until I reach the point of extinction
Loving my true self is the mission
