Head Space

 

HEAD SPACE.........

Sometimes I need some head space

Some time for some true and honest reflection

To get my head together

To work out my sense of self worth

And my own personal sense of direction

 

Sometimes I need some head space

To banish the tormented beast inside of me

Forget about all the pain, the depressive thoughts

The tortuous everlasting painful memories

 

Sometimes I need some head space

To wallow in my own self inflicted self-pity

Think about what I really want and need

And what makes me feel fulfilled and happy 

 

Sometimes I need some head space

To find the peace that I secretly crave

I want time to just hide inside of myself

Find the strength and the will to stay brave

 

Sometimes I need some head space

To realise that I’m an emotional basket case

Find time to analyse what’s real and imaginary

Examine the meanings of my emotions

And wear a fake smile upon my depressive face

 

Sometimes I need some head space

Because I just don’t know what I’m doing

I ask myself all sorts of questions

Without even really knowing

 

Sometimes I need some head space

To gather all my thoughts together

Make sense of all this chaos

Realise that it won’t be there forever

 

Sometimes I need some head space

Because I feel overwhelmed and trapped by it all

I just want to be able to breathe again

Have my quality time, alone, be self-reliant

And catch myself when I’m just about to fall

 

Sometimes I need some head space

To preoccupy myself with myself

To regain control of my own thoughts

And feel alive again
