The Others Voices

Vonda Menard
I am normal
Everyone is normal
What is normal?
I want to be normal
But, normal aint me

I hear the voices in my head
I tell them to be quiet, but they talk louder instead
Take a number I say form a line that way
And wait your turn maybe now you'll learn

My mind races so fast
I can't keep up with the images as they pass
I try to keep up
But I keep getting stuck
I don't want to give up
But, I have such bad luck

So, me and my voices we sleep and we wake
I don't know how much more of this we can take
The sleeping is okay it's the stuff in between
That always keeps us down on our knees

I must go now my mind's off again
I search thru the voices to look for a friend
Cause we go so fast, and I know soon
I'll need someone to help me stay out of the padded room
