Shoot Me Now Or Shoot Me Later

Chorus

Shoot me now or shoot me later

I don’t really care

Shoot me now or shoot me later

There’s madness in the air

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Verse One

Tried to get the help I needed

They don’t really care

They changed that P right to an L

And send me down in tears

Chorus

Shoot me now or shoot me later

I don’t really care

Shoot me now or shoot me later

There’s madness in the air

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Verse Two

Lost my brain a long time ago

Could not find it anywhere

the crazy system of madness blows

Never seen again you know

Chorus

Shoot me now or shoot me later

I don’t really care

Shoot me now or shoot me later

There’s madness in the air

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Verse Three

Going in the crazy circles

Never seems to end

Tried to escape this awful cage

With no way out instead

Chorus

Shoot me now or shoot me later

I don’t really care

Shoot me now or shoot me later

There’s madness in the air

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Verse Four

The voice never seems to shut up

In the crazy maze of such

Headaches are as common in this way

Living in this crazy way

Chorus

Shoot me now or shoot me later

I don’t really care

Shoot me now or shoot me later

There’s madness in the air

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Verse Five

A monster seems to come alive

In this crazy labyrinth

Turn myself into the minotaur

And destroy all of it

Chorus

Shoot me now or shoot me later

I don’t really care

Shoot me now or shoot me later

There’s madness in the air

Shoot me now or shoot me later

Shoot me now or shoot me later

This is my original song from work.  I was working in a section that drove me absolutely nuts.  It is a difficult time for me. Not one of the bosses wanted to listen to any problems either.  It was both physically and mentally terrible.  I eventually left that section but still have much distaste for that time.  The days were long with many more songs, including my previous selection of All the World is on a String.  Escaping that cage was the best thing and in a better place, but the bosses are still the same.  This song, my personal anthem, became a powerful tool for me to express myself when others couldn't understand.  It's a song I will never forget, and I often sing it to myself when decisions make no sense.  I am glad to finish that section and hopefully never to return.  The madness of doing something you hate so badly does have an adverse effect,  but the songs, especially this one, were a soothing balm for my stress. This experience taught me the importance of expressing feelings, even when it seems no one is listening.
