Words:
Sometimes I fear that I will go mad, and I know I'm not lonely in this.
Sometimes it seems that the world is cruel, and it's not wrong to give in to despair at night.
Sometimes I think I should stop complaining, because there are much, much crueler words than this.
Sometimes I think that it's probably better that I never ever leave my house again,
And sometimes I'm trying to avoid my walls by any means necessary.
Sometimes I think that I have it all, although I keep sayin' I have nothing.
And sometimes I think that I have nothing, even though I'm suffocating in all the things that I have.
And when I fix upon being free again, at least for 8 hours or so, a friend beside me, in simultaneous freedom, came to a satori that I still remember:
"This is good for us, for a couple of days, but too much freedom, can kill a man."
Sometimes I see only darkness ahead of me, but often clarity is minutes away.
Often I feel that I talk about things instead of just letting them happen.
Often it seems that excitement is coming, only when there is some money involved.
Often it seems that I'm a different person when I talk out loud, than when I talk to myself.
Sometimes I think of those who are close, but they might as well be kilometers away.
Sometimes I cling to things to tightly, only to let them go as easily as they came.
Often I feel that honesty is possible, only when there so no more then two souls around;
And that's how I feel about the faces around me, collectively they bother me, but I don't mind them one by one.
Sometimes I think I should leave here this second, and sometimes I think everywhere is the same.
Sometimes I think that it's fun knowing everyone, and often I wish I knew no one.
Often I wish I don't keep such a distance, and that I am much more free then I am,
But then again when it comes to freedom, it really is easier said than done.
I guess he was right, all those years ago, being free beside me, in a stolen moment:
"This is good for us, for a couple of days, but too much freedom, will send us to our graves."
