State Of The Mind Address

I cast a lonely shadow but that's alright My shoulder cramping through the darkest night I've been slowly gathering my armaments To be a force withstanding all the harm I sense Seems the only way to beat it Is to see it through And the only way to heal it Is to feed the bruise And the only way to freedom Is jumping through the hoop I don't jump so good Don't jump so good No more living in la-la town Where the only person happy is yet to be found No more passing/pissing my heart around What about me? Sanctuary I spent a long time screaming with both fists clenched I'll spend a long time dealing with the consequence I spent a long time hearing words that made no sense I learnt a lot whilst steering through the bitterness The only words worth eating Have no crumb of truth Only voice worth believing Is the one in you And the only fucking easy path Does not bear fruit I don't bear fools Do not bear fools I keep peering behind me I fear I’m unwinding The state of my mind is frightening My thoughts undermine me My mistakes mount up But they don’t define me
