In The Mind

It's all in the mind
You bigots say
You can get through this
You can live another day
Hold your chin up
Laugh and smile
It'll disappear
After a while

I've had a bad day too

I'm feeling rather down
Wipe away your tears
Erase that stupid frown

 People take medication

For heart disease and pain
So what's the difference
If it's a fault in the brain?

It's hidden in your head

It's locked in your mind
Maybe one day
You'll wake up and find
The cure to being well
The key to happy days
But for now ignore
All the bigots say.
