Bad place in my mind

Bad place in my mind
Bad place I can't hide
Bad place in my mind
Is eating away at what is mine

What is mine, is a memory
Fatal yet graceful, all the same
Of a time when we left the womb, underground
Extracted our roots, and followed light and sound
In exchange for whatever made us whole
Leaving our past, for a feeling control
Yet we still try to stir the ashes
Trying to see a soul

Bad place in our minds
Bad place we can’t hide
Bad place in our minds
Bad place we'd like to hide

I've been staring at these walls for days
Trying to find, a compromise
Searching for an excuse, to feel the memory flood me again
Constructing an image is the escape, but the replica is always a fake

Bad place in our minds
Bad place we can’t hide
Bad place in our minds
Bad place we'd like to hide

I feel the erasers edge, smooth over my skin
The better angels displace, replaced by sin
Cutting the corners, and taking me with it
Stealing what it is I have to do
And what it is I have done
Taking all my cause
A cause I fled long ago

The concrete opens up like a sea
Swallows us whole, with monotony
Encasing us, protecting us
From the Bad place in our mind
Bad place in our mind
Bad place in our mind
The bad place that inside us hides

I really like this bit: "I feel the erasers edge, smooth over my skin
The better angels displace, replaced by sin
Cutting the corners, and taking me with it"

It's a bit repetitive, you might want to cut down some bits or instead balance out the "bad place" lines with more versus. Then again, that's a rookie opinion. I used to never know what rookie meant, and now I'm hoping I used it right...

I like this. It's got slight insanity throughout which I love and it's all very dark and brilliant. Love, love, love
