I want to not be my current self. I want to be someone else, someone else. I'm under the mountain, still and again. I'm under the mountain, a mountain of pain. And the mountain is heavy, more than before. I'm unmovable, unbreathable, unhopeable and more. I'm paralysed, just can't seem to break free. From under the mountain of guilt, pain and trees. Trees with leaves of shame and regret. With a bark of melancholy, I'm sleeping to forget. I'm sleeping to forget that I am myself. And in my sleep, I'm someone else, someone else.

Someone
I want to not be my current self. I want to be someone else, someone else. I'm under the mountain, still and again. I'm under the mountain, a mountain of pain. And the mountain is heavy, more than before. I'm unmovable, unbreathable, unhopeable and more. I'm paralysed, just can't seem to break free. From under the mountain of guilt, pain and trees. Trees with leaves of shame and regret. With a bark of melancholy, I'm sleeping to forget. I'm sleeping to forget that I am myself. And in my sleep, I'm someone else, someone else.
