Damaged Souls

[zombie89]

You can't talk to me anymore, I'm not here
Sunken into my skull, my face is pale
I'm sat on the floor, my head pressed against a shop window
My clothes mean nothing to me anymore, I've failed once again

I scrub my mouth raw, to bring confidence back for a smile
Vizualising my body spinning through this
Hoping to stop at a place far away from anything I've seen before
Electracution would be my only escape

This time it's bad, too much baggage to carry
Who will ever take me, human nature is all I have now

In a flurry of the day I speak out and feel free for a second
But it reminds me of how much I have to conquer to be out from under
It's utterly taken me over and I've surrendered
A disease of the mind, withered away

Chucked into the house of damaged souls
I see them, they can't see me
Forever constricted, forever alone
The manifestation is complete

Ive read this many times and wanted to post a reply in lyrical form, but I wanted to know one thing first:

"I scrub my mouth raw, to bring confidence back for a smile"
Cocaine?

[zombie89]

What I meant by that was, by brushing my teeth loads because the person is insecure about their teeth and always puts their hand over their mouth when they smile!!

oh ha ha I see.

Some one used the same wording in another poem and they were talking about coke. I get it now :)

Don't speak to me, I'm not the same anymore.
Don't make me stand up, Ive made place on the floor.
If life has meaning, why am I meaningless?
If life has meaning, why am I meaningless?

What ever I say wont make you understand
What ever I do wont let you comprehend
Why am I depressed? You tell me
This sad tale is a death to be

I told you already, I tried my best
I gave it me all, took out the rest
But I just don't fit, my size to small
Just wont connect, pieces too tall

The only thing keeping me sane
Is these pills, the doctors gain
So I wonder, whats the use?
In the end, I don't get to choose.

Not into it, but it's not the worst thing I've read either.
