Loneliness is a very blunt hammer, that crashes against your walls as you sleep It keeps you up at night, haunting your mind with ghosts of crippling doubt, and silver demons that cut at your skin It makes your mouth dry, it makes every step feel heavier, it makes your eyes bloodshot with anxiety For it is a sinister thing, it creeps into your skull and burrows into the grey matter It makes your lungs feel constricted, and your tears heavy with salt It makes your fingers bend against the window pane, your words choke againt your bleeding teeth As you sit in your slumber, and feel thw hollowness in your bones Lonliness is a grotesque beast, that lays with you in the night, and whispers deathly hymns to your soul It’s a insidious thing, a truly isolating angel, a god that seeks to punish

Dead Air
Loneliness is a very blunt hammer, that crashes against your walls as you sleep It keeps you up at night, haunting your mind with ghosts of crippling doubt, and silver demons that cut at your skin It makes your mouth dry, it makes every step feel heavier, it makes your eyes bloodshot with anxiety For it is a sinister thing, it creeps into your skull and burrows into the grey matter It makes your lungs feel constricted, and your tears heavy with salt It makes your fingers bend against the window pane, your words choke againt your bleeding teeth As you sit in your slumber, and feel thw hollowness in your bones Lonliness is a grotesque beast, that lays with you in the night, and whispers deathly hymns to your soul It’s a insidious thing, a truly isolating angel, a god that seeks to punish
