chaining myself down is not encouragement
forcing me by the hand is not motivation
direction is not inspiration
honesty is not a policy
i'm honestly, not okay
please
stop the screaming
use a led ship the side of a button
it'll sail through the abandoned mind
looking for a lighthouse
but there is no light in this house
the doors have been locked for years
i locked them
don't let the monsters in
i didn't realise i was the monster
isolation is not safety
i'm not safe inside my head
a ship has found me
offers me sleep
and i'm tired
my head hasn't rested in days
the ship enters me and i fall asleep.
