In the cold rain as cars flew by
I couldn't endure, I was bleeding
My heart was frozen cold in pain
They took me, for fear of suicide
I was silent but I was screaming
asking, asking asking
Was I born like this, or chosen to be insane
But I am ready
I need some time
To quietly consider my life
The pills they gave me
Are just right
The rooms were ice cold and wet
But the walls are padded, and I sleep
Attendants gave me a jacket to wear
Holds my arms tight, if I am upset
Alone in my cell, without my dreams
Surrounded by men who don't care
The asylum is what I need
It is who I am
When I bleed
Someone comes and nicely
Washes the bloody sheets
