Insanity
Insanity is a funny thing
I often find myself overanalyzing things
Waiting for the lightbulb to explode
The musics sudden stop
The tears drowning out the sound
The insanity taking over
In a way, it's like that lightbulb
The fire contained inside
The glass surrounding you threatening to explode
Emotions
All bottled up
The pounding of the lyrics of life
Forming tears that threaten to fall
People swarming around
Your glass about to break
Your cover blown
You have to bottle your fire
Fake a smile
And put on your mask
Different days, same ways
Drowning yourself in music to try and control it
But the insanity
Starts to take over
The fire is getting bigger
The glass warmer
Heating up
Slowly, people start to notice
They realize your lightbulb is cracked
Yet they fail to notice how close you are to shattering
Each day, a little piece cracks
So close to shattering
Cutting skin like paper so you don't break
Cutting it instead of the lightbulb
But
Soon
It isn't enough
The noise of life catches up
Suddenly all there is is a dull ringing
Gone
Shattered
and as the lightbulb is, so is the person.
