Riot

A Rorschach pattern
Tell me what you see
My own demise beyond the lines
Behind the pools of ink, I seek to find
The solution for my troubled mind
My personal psycho who robs me blind
She's a sinner inside
Taking a wild ride
Never sowing the tales she's lied
But to her family, she'd never confide
A harlequin with desparate ties
Wise beyond her years
Her mind is like the ocean's tide
She tries to not scream her fears
Riot internal
This mind is in the gutters below
The riot is like fire
Burning inside these veins
Thinking forbidden desires
Chilling this heart to ice
Considering the ones to entice
Things that really shouldn't be
Now I know
The things I'll never show
For the riot is inside me.
