"Been Layin' in the Grave So Long, Poor Boy"
it feels like
I can be nothing
more than a
recurring burden
to others.
They all say,
"Get well soon,
friend; let's get
you back on
your feet,"
but my mind
keeps whispering
"It's all too
much, & it's
all too late.
*You might
as well
get
gone
for
good."
"Hang me, oh hang me, & I'll be dead & gone,
wouldn't mind the hanging, been
layin' in the grave so long,
poor boy, I've been
all around this world."
