I swallow my tongue to keep from lying
Behind my kingdom walls, I’ll quietly build an army to keep from dying
From my defensive position, you won’t catch me openly crying
It’s a daily battle, and my chosen solitude isn’t something for the buying

Undiagnosed uniqueness, you will never see the overwhelming deepness
You can have my attention as a basic jigsaw that lasts as long as my restlessness
Strip search, take my laces, misread my faces, you’re the boss, pills to numb my happiness
As long as I’m on a cocktail of medication for you, this ceases the madness

A pharmaceutical guineapig, I just need my four walls and a place to tend my herd or a muddle
Life is more than this pill puddle but it’s still a struggle
Now bouncing off my walls, unanswered calls, overdramatised falls
