When I’ve gone insane

…I was gone for fourteen days
I could’ve been gone for more
Held up in the intensive care ward
Lyin’ on the floor
I was gone for all those days
But I was not all alone
I made friends with a lot of people
In the danger zone
See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my only mind explode
Since I’ve gone away
I think I lost some weight there
And I, I’m sure I need some rest
Sleeping don’t come very easy
In a straight white vest
Sure like to see that little children
She’s only four years old, old
I’d give her back all of her play things
Even, even the ones I stole
See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my lonely mind explode
When I’ve gone insane
I wanna get outta here
I wanna get outta here…
…See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my only mind explode
Blow up in my face
I grabbed my hat and I got my coat
And I, I ran into the street
I saw a man that was choking there
I guess he couldn’t breathe
Said to myself this is very strange
I’m glad it wasn’t me
But now I hear those sirens callin’
And so I am not free
(I didn’t wanna be)
(I didn’t wanna be)
(I didn’t wanna be)
See my lonely life unfold
(I didn’t wanna be)
(I didn’t wanna be)
(Leave me alone, I didn’t wanna be)
(Don’t touch me!)
See my lonely mind explode
When I’ve gone insane
_ Alice Cooper (Ballad of Dwight Fry, excerpt) _
