State of Mind

What runs through your head?
My state of mind is hard to say
In the end it may betray
But then it could live again
Tell me things that have no friends

My thoughts are scattered always daze
Running through a childish maze
Leading off to things so strange
People think I am deranged

But here I stand totally unscathed
While my mind is figuratively bathed
Waves of thoughts drowned my head
And then I know it's time for bed

I sleep away and thoughts still surge
Telling me things I have no urge
To see nor do but yet they lie
Inside my head and will not die

On and on through my life
My mind is stabbed as with a knife
With the things that we call plans
Search and destroy hit by vans

Now they are gone, I am alone
I do not care how to atone
I will continue to do as I please
I will not fall down to my knees
