And lapse of mind

Cause a body

Disarray

Too much time

To sit and think

And ponder

Of a way

Never a thought

At what lies ahead

Just complete chaos

An urge to reneg

Unable to think

Of those who care

And who worry

Just wanting away

And in such a whir

You don't stop to think

About those

Who have helped you

And those left behind

Never a blink

In the eye of the times

Only a thought

Of one's self

And one's highs

People often forget

The past that is gone

Remembering, too late,

The loves of long ago

People and places

Thoughts and ideals

Leaving behind

The real ways that you feel

Quitting the race

Is never in sight

Always on the run

An outlaw in your own mind
