No holds barred, no bars could hold, prospered through obscurity and indifference,

Not one shard of what you're told should break your stride in going the distance,

But you won't have a bar of it, other's sympathy keeps you afloat,

Thoughtless becomes mindless when you're doggy paddling up shit-creek and you want me to build you a fucking boat,

Not within a shadow of a doubt, but THE shadow of doubt has cast itself for miles around you,

You cannot stop it's manifestation - if you just don't want it to,

Can't suppress the mess with a substance, or hide the distress amidst all the stomach cramps,

Didn't re-assess or de-stress, you didn't give yourself half a fucking chance,

Insecurities, superstitions, forever unknowing and distrustful of your surroundings,

Unexpected, univited, living in your fucking head
