The Narcissist in my mind tells me that I'm a waste of space,

And the good guy in my mind tells me that I'm okay,

These behaviours reside in my mind and they're starting to stay,

Wish I could sell all of these thoughts instead they're making me pay,


I can't deny in my mind is behaviours of old, 

And they're making me crazy and they're making me cold, 

I keep forgetting all the time, have Alzheimers, oh my mind is so old, 

Telling me life is a game of poker, am I willing to fold?, 


In my mind there resides such a magical place, 

Call it drugs, call it hugs like I'm floating in space, 

Call it fly, Call it a high that I'm willing to chase, 

Oh my mind, like baseball, got to make it to base, 


In my mind there resides oh some terrible lies, 

I can flirt, I can hurt, I can run and disguise, 

All these thoughts and feelings of an unhealthy size, 

Those thoughts like a suit of the mind, like shirts with their ties, 


And he cries so loud saying "Will you help me?", 

Yet my mind slowly remembers what I wanted to be, 

It's like I lived my life blind now I finally see, 

That my mind is a prize staring right back at me. 


In my mind, a suprise, it's a quite peaceful place, 

Yet the world we live in is so far from deep outer space, 

I hurt so many I should feel some disgrace, 

I vow from now on to take life at my own pace, 


The narcissist in my mind tells me that I'm a huge waste of space, 

The dark demons in my mind, that's a thought that they trace, 

In my mind they are trapped now and I'm starting to chase, 

Now I'm set to tell the world that I'm finally great.
