If it were up to me, I'd let myself rot here Drowned in my cotton sheets And allow my skin to finally sink In between the gaps of my rib cage. Rot and putrefy and fester and ooze, Flesh dripping off bone, So this stink of my own decay may be apparent to me alone no longer. Senses overburdened by defeat.
