Petals In The Grass

Gone Mad

A bit of affection
Is that so bad?
Will anyone ever want me?
Or have I gone mad?

A dreary existence
A dismal life
I'll sharpen my courage
And sharpen my knife

Factual loneliness
Authentic seclusion
Lost in make-believe
Lost in illusion

At one time I was loved
But I was only a lad
Will anyone ever want me?
Or have I gone mad?
