Clinic

I called the clinic and they said it was a three-week wait 'But the doctor'll give you something just to get you through the day.' I'm scared, I've never felt like this before The only way I can stop from crying is to take deep breaths and sit on the floor I woke early this morning 'cause my appointment was today She asked me what I've been up to and if everything's okay I said 'Frustration passes through me The way that wind shakes trees.' When the panic set in, it was all I knew The sadness washed my skin and shaking grew When the panic set in, it was all I knew The sadness washed my skin and shaking grew She asked me to go home, unclench my fists Think of everything that's stressful and start a list I thought, 'Yeah, if I could actually see my life Maybe I could compartmentalise the dark and the light.' I woke up early that Tuesday as I did then every week And the more times that I did that, the less I felt like a freak But I got added to the fixed list even though I struggle still When the panic set in, it was all I knew The sadness washed my skin and shaking grew When the panic set in, it was all I knew The sadness washed my skin and shaking grew I used to have friends I used to know why I felt sad, if I ever did But now I feel that all the time I used to have friends I used to know why I felt sad, if I ever did But now I feel that all the time When the panic set in, it was all I knew The sadness washed my skin and shaking grew When the panic set in, it was all I knew The sadness washed my skin and shaking grew
