Circles
Round and Round I go
My mind is fractured
My body is deformed
My heart is lost
Round and Round I go
Trying to figure out me
Trying to see the future
Trying to believe in something
Round and Round I go
The world is against me
The world eclipses people like me
The world drowns me
Round and Round I go
Till I end up in the ground, 6ft deep
With a frown permanently etched on my face
A color called black that looks more brown than white
Round and Round I go
