Diary of a madman


It might amaze you
To hear what I say
The room I’m in is changing color
A little day by day

The blues are shifting and changing
With yellow to make green
It really is enlightening
It could all just be a dream

Please forgive me this is just a release
I can give what I can take
Systematic emotion retraction
Before it is too late

Please don’t mind me
My dreams are getting old
I’ll have to place them out again
For rain to make them grow

Then I can feed
And mature them
And lock them away
Just like these changing colors
To prevent them going grey.

Please don’t ignore me
I think I have control
I’ve been released from insanity
But I’m still on parole

What can I do?
What can I say?
It all sounds so grand
Just like these ever changing colors
As a boy into a man

Yes I am getting better
Perhaps they will let me outside
To see my reflection in the lake
To feel breeze upon my side

But for the moment
I’ll rest here
And enjoy insanity
And savor my room of changing colors
So I won’t have to see me.
