Happy Thoughts by Eric Matthews

Take me on into your dancing nightmare
Trip me up on your words of loving laughter
Remove my brain through my ear canal
Disect me into tiny peices and tell me what I'm all about

Reassemble me but throw my emotions out
Don't make me feel anymore
I don't want to feel
I don't want to love
or hate
or be envious
I don't want to be mad
I don't want to hurt

Don't make me hurt anymore
I have had my fill of it
More than my fair share
And I don't need to be showered in your hypocricies
or drugged by your politics
or brainwashed by your beliefs

I just need to be disassembled
Put back in the box
And placed in the drawer of a nightstand in the guestroom
of a house that never gets any visitors

It may become a song. I am working on 3 songs now so when they are finished we shall see.
