A poem written by Jesse Ostrowski
When your mind is casting its grip
And you feel you're going insane
And there is nothing but pain
And it's peace you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And it seems like people are out to hurt you
And you don't think you care to race it through
And it's a rescue that you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And it seems like nobody is on your side
And you are thinking of suicide
And its attention that you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And even your own family isn't there
And it's hard to believe that people care
And it's a brother that you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And it seems like everybody is putting you down
And kindness is nowhere to be found
And its love that you are in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And the whole world seems foul
And you're ready to throw in the towel
And it's a vacation you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And when your composition gets worse each day
And your mind is in a bad way
And its answers that you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And life is turning you into a drug addict
And you know that you're really sick
And its change you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
~
When your mind is losing its grip
And you're slowly losing touch
And the pain is too much
And its laughter you're in need of
It's time to take a trip
To the House of Love
Where people are always hip
