Sleep is for the week/weak I’m falling
Sick of her name you’re calling
I’m so tired, so uninspired
So I write these words to say
I forgot how to feel it seems
When before the pain was bursting my seams
I guess this is stage 1
These conversations are coming undone
We're all a bit selfish at times
and to our bodies we commit terrible crimes
but this battle I’m fighting within myself
I’ll put in a box until it’s time to dwell
on how bad things have been
like what what went wrong and who you’ve been
Holding it in when i just wanna break down
I cannot escape this the darkest of clouds
no nooo x2
it’s not fair x4
you don’t care x4
But I feel like it’s expired
Too many times I've cried and tried to prove to a liar
that some days are black and some are white
Anxiety spills and I’m losing my mind
I guess this is stage 2
I’m barely pieced together by insufficient glue
and I’ve fought and fought ‘till I’m too sick and tired
and I’ll live with this pain until that too expires
When living seems like a chore
and things are so different than they were before
It seems i’ve forgotten to feel
I don’t know what’s imagined and what is real
Because chemicals can’t comprehend me
but neither can people that claim that they know me
when i don’t even know myself
I don't wanna ask but I know I need help
no nooo x2
it’s not fair x4
you don’t care x4
‘cuz I’m drowning in this and I know I can’t cope
I question a god’s sick idea of a joke
a joke that is constant and never ends
and a beautiful world that seems so pretend
a joke that is constant and never ends
and a beautiful world that seems so pretend
a beautiful world that seems so pretend
a beautiful world that seems so pretend
a beautiful world that seems so pretend
