It only takes a moment to stop

And realise what is going on

Suddenly my mind catches up

With me and I realise the

Person I’ve become

 

I am overwhelmed in thinking

I have done everything wrong

What I thought was important

Has been folly all along

 

Including you whom I’ve

Thought about too much

You suck me in like

A leech to blood

I lose all sense of reality

And feel like giving up

 

All my efforts have boiled down

To nothing…

What is it but worthlessness

At the end of the day?

 

I give everything to make

You happy and yet you have

Nothing to say

 

Therefore I must anaesthetize

The love that has been the root

Of all my ecstasy and pain

Like a broken record once loved

I will throw you away.
