Untethered

The fear it grips me tight as it begins to take a hold Not knowing what attacks my body The only respite I get is self-medicating Just to take the edge off Looking for answers I pursue the healing Ending all the suffering Nausea setting in Shivers and tremors Constitution's wearing thin I pass out from exhaustion I don't know how this all began My plans didn't account for this A seemingly ordinary life Struck with strife and bitterness I put my trust in those who heal Just to reveal what I've misread And even though they try their best They just can't crack what's in my head Hospital beds Machines with wires under my skin Is it my head? Or are my problems deeper yet? Instruments dissecting every part of me Is it my head? Are my afflictions deeper set? The doctors say they can't locate the source Of all my pain causing affliction The only respite I get is self-medicating Just to take the edge off Looking for answers I pursue the healing Ending all the suffering Hospital beds Machines with wires under my skin Is it my head? Or are my problems deeper yet? Instruments dissecting every part of me Is it my head? Are my afflictions deeper set?
