When my life gets out of hand.

For all those struggling with mental illness or disorders..

All I'm really wanting from you , all I really need from you
Is that you will finally understand something of what I'm going through
For the things that I've been saying and the things that I might do
Are merely some inner reactions  to some struggle: I know its true

I am on a therapeutic journey and I am on this journey alone
Sometimes I have some supporters and at times I'm on my own 
Won't you try a little bit harder and won't you try to understand
That I cannot really control it when my life gets out of hand..

On the outside I  may seem so heartless and my speech so very crude
I am confronting the majority of  my life like a person who seems so rude
But this isn't my truest nature to be so hurtful or so uncaring
But the imbalance inside of my body is making me seem so overbearing..

I am on therapeutic journey and I am on this journey alone
Sometimes I have some supporters and at times I'm on my own..
Won't you try a little bit harder and won't you try to understand
That I cannot really control it when my life gets out of hand

I want to be like the rest of you and to be glowing in all I do
But the things that keep on showing are a utter disrespect for you
But this is a cause for inner  trembling and a badge for my inner shame
Because all I really want to be doing  are things that bring honor to my name

I am on therapeutic journey and I am on this journey alone
Sometimes I have some supporters and at times I'm on my own..
Won't you try a little bit harder and won't you try to understand
That I cannot really control it when my life gets out of hand

Won't you help me therefore as I struggle and as I'm trying to really heal
Won't you take my honest confessions as something sincere and really real
I wouldn't for a moment be  hateful or be disrespectful in any way
For these actions that keeps on escaping me are a person from yesterday

I am on therapeutic journey and I am on this journey alone
Sometimes I have some supporters and at times I'm on my own..
Won't you try a little bit harder and won't you try to understand
That I cannot really control it when my life gets out of hand

I want to thank you for having me with you for being for me a friend
For walking with me on my journey and allowing me to join the trend
Of people who walk united in one voice and one heart and one soul
Speaking out for those mentally challenged with equality being our goal..

I am on therapeutic journey and I am on this journey alone
Sometimes I have some supporters and at times I'm on my own..
Won't you try a little bit harder and won't you try to understand
That I cannot really control it when my life gets out of hand
