Forgive Me For My Synapses

I am all that I think I am the way that my neurons are wired They fire ions through electrical Synapses fusing themselves to receiving cells Building a network that only gets stronger As I continue the thought pattern Implied by the process I make a decision on what to react to What I perceive based on electrical current And I am all that I feel I'm a neurotransmitters' desire These chemical messengers look for a nerve With the perfect receptor to fit in They get in and give it specific instructions On what to release until this chain Of events reaches down to the glands which Then produce every hormone known to Spread to the tissue of organs And make them dance All I can do is breathe That's how I put out the fire And all I can do is think Force my circuitry to rewire Everything outside is already inside There's nothing we see that we don't At least partially make on our own In our heads so it seems like my duty To get in my bio-computer and Pry apart neurons with long-term relationships That tell my brain to release "feel bad" chemicals One day I'll be free from the brain That makes me, me Now that I know that I'm in control I can cut my own puppet strings You are all that you think You're the way that your neurons are linked I bet if you don't let it get a little better It will get a lot worse All you gotta do is open up and
