Wildly swinging from side to side
By life's perceptions, the conclusions I make
Trying to still the cries from my inner child
Whilst I analyze each little mistake
Rocky and bewildered by disappointing situations
That gets thrown into my lap without caution
Taking narcotics to calm my heart's palpitations
My dreams and desires suffer from serious distortion
Flapping and flipping like a fish on the ground
Breathing gets hard when discrepancies appear
Screaming like a white whale without making a sound
Crying my heart out without showing a tear
Breaking and healing simultaneously in scatters
This swinging just never seems to stop
Eating ungracefully from one thousand platters
Not quite sure for which one to opt
Swirling and curling at a speedy pace
Until the adrenalin and fantasies consume me
Longing for a balanced and steady home-base
Where my hands and my mind can stay free
