Have you ever had a thought you couldn't get out of your head?

A thought so overbearing that you can't hear the world you're in.

The world seems quieter but your mind gets louder

Each thought, a pounding drum that beats louder with each drumbeat

You think and think and think and you see everyone speaking but all you can hear is that itching thought that has a hold over you and you want it to let go

You scream internally for it to let go and not get louder

One thought turns to two and three and four

I've gotten lost like Alice in Wonderland or those kids in Narnia

I no longer can hear reality because i've fallen into a fantasy

I've fallen into a dream I can't escape

An amusement park full of rides i'm tired of riding on... Now I welcome you to Anxietyland
