It's hard to get out of bed these days
Or do anything at all,
really
Everything is so dreary
Sadness is all around me
It's in the people and the air and the water
I'm suffocating slowly
Choking silently
Or at least that's how it feels
My morale for this strange battle called life has sunken like a ship
It's hard to stop thinking that it shouldn't be a battle
It's hard to stop thinking about being elsewhere
It's hard to stop thinking about being bodiless
How I long to see what's next
But I know that I'm to stay here
Deal with dignity, all of the drear
It's not because there's pain in death, that I fear,
But hurting those I love so dear
