If I die before I wake, throw my corpse into the lake,
Because I did not die in sleep, I died in peace.
Life is a constant intrusion of pain into my slumber, and waking up is a daily encumber,
But perhaps waking is not as simple as it seems.
Is waking meant in a way of ceasing to sleep, or ceasing to live, not weep?
Either way, I am stuck in a abyss of not being woken.
So yes, I shall die before I wake, because my life isn’t what death would take,
Because I promise I’m already dead to begin with
