Psychosis is a song from my 2022 album Unveil. I've designed this track to reflect psychosis as a mental battle ground, where the sufferer is deep in a war against their own psyche and sense of reality and sanity.

Lyrics:
The shadows form on this battlefield,
This death and dust, it seems so real,
Unfocused gaze,
Under my armour I crumble.
Unseeing,
Unhearing,
As my sanity lies bleeding,
I’m too far gone
In this eternal mental struggle.
And these haunted souls surround me,
Do I breathe an alternate reality?
Walls closing in around me,
Do I breathe an alternate reality?
The war of this psychosis,
Fighting phantoms in thin air,
My mind is a minefield,
Explosive, unaware.
With neither side succeeding,
An onslaught so illusory,
Keep your head against their gunfire,
Corrupted by insanity.
All my demons are born on this battlefield,
This decay and rust, it feels so real,
Within the haze of destruction
You will find me.
And these haunted souls surround me,
Do I breathe an alternate reality?
Walls closing in around me,
Do I breathe an alternate reality?
The war of this psychosis,
Fighting phantoms in thin air,
My mind is a minefield,
Explosive, unaware.
With neither side succeeding,
An onslaught so illusory,
Keep your head against their gunfire,
Corrupted by insanity.
The war of this psychosis,
Fighting phantoms in thin air,
My mind is a minefield,
Explosive, unaware.
With neither side succeeding,
An onslaught so illusory,
Keep your head against their gunfire,
Corrupted by insanity.
The war of this psychosis,
My mind is a minefield.
The shadows form on this battlefield,
This death and dust, it seems so real,
Unfocused gaze,
Under my armour I crumble.

I once said to a psychiatrist, that I feel like I'm breathing air that comes from an alternative reality but I couldn't quite explain what i meant and he had no clue. Now I see similar words in your song. Bizarre. Great song though, Miss Elysian.
