I have been sentenced to a life of disconnection. Lost in deep concentration and impossible to socialize. I can see your lips move but only hear my own voice reflecting other interests. Nobody understands me and how i can't listen. So I sit here lost and confused with no ambition.  Why am I alone, trapped in this prison they call the mind?

Warming up, thoughts are like a machine gun firing in Baghdad. I am about to go to war with another man to entertain thousands. The real battle is within myself. I know i am ready but my demons tell me otherwise. I have been in this dark place before. Curtains open and I escape from hell.
