[Lyric] Neurotic Patterns (No Mercy Tom)

[Verse One]
The darkest path is often the safest one
Let me flee from sanity
Into the arms of adversity
Depression and anxiety the only outcome
Patterns of behaviour that imprison me
A slave to compulsion and I can't break free
Is my life's purpose to be dysfunctional
Where is a semblance of normality?

[Chorus]
Navigate the maze that is my mind
Neurotic patterns
Darkness and guilt is all you'll find
Navigate the maze that is my mind
Neurotic patterns
There's no way out when you're trapped inside

[Verse Two]
My mind swings between composure and chaos
Infinite self-destructive cycles
Actions that inflict deep wounds
Which add to the scars of my broken past
[Chorus]
Navigate the maze that is my mind
Neurotic patterns
Darkness and guilt is all you'll find
Navigate the maze that is my mind
Neurotic patterns
There's no way out when you're trapped inside

[Breakdown]
Neurotic patterns
No, I won't change
You can't see these chains
Maybe it's just the man I am
