about
As people presenting with Mental health concerns continues to grow. Song reflects how modern life and the demands of the environment (not just the city) can grind us all down psychologically from time to time or even permanently. The increase in demand impacts on a system already overloaded and at breaking point and ill equipped to deal with the most vulnerable and people most at need. I'm sure you know where were coming from. Come and take a ride with us down in Mental Health City but dont get lost...
lyrics
Did I hear you say you were trapped inside do you avoid the reality in your mind
The deeper we go it seem the less they find Another day of trouble for a problem child
Live for the sickness and the foods outta date took a long time better never than late
Im in a Pleasure dome and is it fight or flight I had an artificial sleep last night
Paranoid in crowded spaces Cut me open and i never heal
It’s a fractured dream that is forced upon you
Looking for a helpline and I’m loosing my capacity
Mental health city x 4
Sometimes laugh but it dies inside. Everybody find out all the places I hide
Paralysed but the light is on green loosing my memory tell me where have I been
Drop Outta life like I dropped outta school don’t like what ive done and I don’t make the rules
I could take direction but the vision is blurred you talk through a phone and you forgot how to care.
In a room and there is disconnection borderline and it is hard to breathe
You say were equal but im underneath you
Ticking all the boxes but I losing my capacity..
Mental health city x 4
Guitar solo: Same chords as verse :::::
Fix your make up .. I can see the anger
Hear the voices and your mind not free..
They passing judgement for their own amusement
I cant stand up and I losing my capacity
Mental health city x 4
Breakdown and I’ve no track of time feel so worthless when I caught in your eyes
I gave control but I knew you were blind you set the boundaries then you crossing all the lines
Ask me questions and I scratch my skin
My mind just freeze and I wont let you in
Part of the ride and we do what they say its all a bit much and is she slipping away ..
Approval comes in the guise of rejection
Life is cheap and I can never leave
Take me home and I feel like a stranger
But I back next week cos ill be losing my capacity……
