My mind's map is a twisted thing
Leading me on journeys through lands I don't entirely understand
Full of paths heading to nowhere
Ending at bluffs that drop off into places uncharted
Leaving me to retrace my steps
Or jump into the unknown
More often than not I'll leap and find myself broken and lost
Occasionally I'll go back the way I came
Hoping to find a juncture in the path I missed the first time
One that will lead me to a place I understand
Only to become more lost than before
My mind's map is confusing and often dark
Filled with traps and tricks
An x marks the spot where my happiness is buried
Under miles of depressive thoughts and broken hearts
False hopes lie at the end of struggles
Gold plated lies that soon flake away to nothing
Leaving me with empty hands and an empty heart
My mind's map is impossible to decipher and unending
The more I try to understand it the more confused I find myself
I more I try to reach the end of the path the longer it gets
My mind's map is dark and broken
And I fear I have become lost in it
