Too Much

I’ve got as little too much of everything
wrapped round my weary frame
there’s such a thing as too much emotion
such a thing as too much shame
I try to grasp the point behind this
Like I grasp a favorite song
But the world keeps on turning
and I’ve been in the dark too long
Wrapped in reason,
Searching for a rhyme,
been trapped in this prison
Though I’ve yet to serve my time
Life goes on, a mindless tune
Forgive me if I hum.
But behind the endless pounding
My soul is going numb
Save me once, reach for me
maybe save me twice
In the end, it’s all a game
And I’m still searching for the dice.
