I just want to sleep
I just want peace
my soul is ready to reap
unpaid body lease
sunken heart so heavy
struggling for heft
drowning not deadly
I just want to rest
I'd rather be dead
and out of my head
experience release
life's trials never cease
terror in the night
terror in the day
never had the will to fight
pampering their way
shivers eternal
heightened by
poisoned paternal
I'd rather be high
rather be alone
be together
fear of the (un)known
scraps of being on tether
