MENTAL Lyrics by Dan Gray

Life Lessons

2020

[Verse 1]
Before I wished to go outside
Just wanted death to take my hide
First attempt with a kitchen knife
Not contempt of the shelf life
Second way off the balcony
But walked away in agony
I tried to make my belt the noose
It wasn’t tied and felt loose
That's when I tried a third time
Paying my fare for this crime
As a monster of my accord
Who fostered out the Dark Lord
Which version are you perceiving
It’s the diversion who’s leaving
I’m free of thеse inner demons
Lеt's start to pick up the pieces

[Chorus]
It's okay to feel as if the future isn't bright
Just so long as you can see the light
While your friends are sitting tight
And helping you back up with insight

[Verse 2]
Live in a dream that’s not mine
Can’t scream for help to think I’m fine
My mouth will doubt these teary eyes
Gone south with fears of heaven lies
Waiting for the time to awake
Praying my soul is next to take
While trying to find the true me
And no bind to any scrutiny
I’ll state my peace in this temple
Debate the piece near my temple
Why is the world this judgemental
I can barely judge my mental
Made mention of the departure
Of the only Frances Farmer
Sometimes I’m sappy like Cobain
When was I happy in the brain

[Outro]
The day I never felt the rain
Was the same I lost the reins
I looked for help in an entity
Now I'm just looking for eternity
