To Think or Not to Think Is the Answer

My mind has a mind of its own and it wanders off to places I can’t reach
My mind is occupied by an infestation of leeches, it’s draining and I can’t think straight
It’s getting late, no one should have to think in this state.
Where’s the off button for this thing?
I can’t find the manual unless I chucked it in the bin.
Maybe I disagreed with the instructions now my mind is set on self-destruction.
Not even sure I was given a leaflet on how it should work in the first place
I just have a feeling that it’s broken and I can’t replace it.
No matter how hard I try to think of something else or feel differently
I always end up back to that place where I can’t reach.
My mind goes back to that beach, where we used to go
and I feel at peace there for a split second
until reality hits me and then I realise
I’m back here with the same mind.

My mind has a mind of its own and it wanders off to places I can’t reach
it turns out you can’t get a refund on these things or be able to trade in or upgrade
so while I’m here on this planet, I’m stuck with it,
working alongside it with an abnormal functionality
I still have my personality; I guess that’s something, although it’s still hiding
along with my feelings and everything else that I care about.
