Array ( [sid] => 17121 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => I Don't Know [time] => 2003-05-06 12:05:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I don’t know how I got this way, nothing seems alright.
Why do I yell silently? Why do I feel the need to fight?
I don’t understand the world around me. I don’t know why I’m going blind.
Why do the questions run in my head? Why can’t I say the answers I find?
I don’t know what side I’m on. I don’t know where I’m going.
Why is my heartbeat getting faster? Why is my mind slowing?
I don’t know where I am. I don’t know why I explode.
Why is the world against me? Why am I in information overload?
I can’t find my self. Where have I went?
Why do you look at me strangely? Why is my sanity completely bent?
I don’t know why my head is on backwards. I don’t know who I am.
Why don’t you help me or do you not give a damn?
I don’t know why I’m confused. I don’t know how to live.
Why do I hurt those around me? Why can’t I learn to live?
I don’t know how I can care so much and not care at all.
Why do I verbally treat others like a non-reacting wall?
I don’t know how I can be a brute. I don’t know if this is me.
Why don’t you tell me the answers I ask of? Why don’t you listen to my plea?
I don’t recognize anything. I didn’t realize I was so mean.
Why do you treat me with silence? Why do I make such a scene?
I don’t know why I can’t help myself. I don’t know why I beg and cry.
Why do you see nothing but a monster? Why don’t you listen to my cry?
I’ll never hear the words that you’ll never say to me.
I don’t know why I stand here waiting. I’m going to take my leave.
I’ll never know and you’ll never help me.
I’d rather go blind than have you help me see.
