Deranged Mind

by PunkyThespian - Libra

So grand and confident
So noble and proud
So empty and devastated
So bored and unmotivated

I take a break and think
I wonder for a moment what I'm doing here
It overwhelms me, I pour a drink
It kills the lonliness and fear

So powerful and strong
So energetic and purposeful
So numb and uncomfortable
So weak and unreasonable

Some days I have it all figured out
I feel intoxicated with my own cleverness
Then ten minutes later I'm full of doubt
Feeling alone and worthless

So skilled and patient
So glib and intuitive
So regretful and ashamed
So dizzy and deranged

I know there's something wrong
But I'm not sure if it's something I want to cure
When I'm on top nothing can touch me I'm so strong
But right now I'm in the pit.

Nobody can reach me here.
