Split Minds

Where was the moment

I needed the most?

I kick up the past just to find there's no carryin' on

When I'm falling

to pieces every time

I won the fight

(but did you make peace restore?) Subtle changes,

that's okay (you aren't yourself again) I just gotta pick up a

checklist with every step Tryna kick off the school year

(Uh-oh, hearing voices / Uh-oh,

social withdrawal) I gotta keep going strong

No control, stay on my toes,

That's the way I try to win at this thing (you're twisted)

Well, we are the same person (you're cold-hearted,

sadistic) Well, warm hugs are overrated I've had enough,

this time I'm finally breaking free (Down is up,

up is down / Turn the hallucinations on you now / Down

is up, up is down) Stop,

wait! (Stop, wait!) I should never have let you take back control

This battle's between us and us alone So just let me go

I spent too many years in that wretched behavioral hospital

(it pushed you over the edge)

But the way I begged and pleaded got me help with my

mental health I'm a true wild card (more self-invested) You can't trick

me

Will I get caught

if I trip and fall on the rails?

(I won't answer if I scream

and call) And the delusions inside my head are holding,

holding strongly

I know it's all linked to the mix of genetics,

brain chemistry, and environmental factors

With long-term hallucinations, fixed delusions,

switching illogically

Disorganized thinking, reduced emotion

Negative symptoms

This whole hallucination spree (will crash right back on you) I've seen

all of the cards (seek false intentions) Can't believe schizophrenia threw my

life away (away)

My only strategy was tragedy,

turn hallucinations to reality

Switched up my fate

I'm rough around the edges,

but I'm not a bad guy I'm angry and I'm hurting and

it's hard for me to trust.
