I lose my mind from time to time
But I always seem to find it
I sometimes get excited about the future
But my past looms right behind it

Pain that pity and recovery can't resolve
An assortment of memories involved
And plans that never blossomed.

But if anyone thinks for one second
I will give up my hopes and dreams
Just to spite the daily screams
There's just some things I can't repress
I try to give my all and nothing less.
