Just in case you hadn't noticed
Existence is a paradox
Don't mean this as a metaphor
But I am really in a box
I haven't been around that much
Just in case you hadn't noticed
Been buried under all this weight
I've been somewhat less than focused
I don't mean to be a bother
But my skelebones are showing
Just in case you hadn't noticed
Frigid winds of time are blowing
I'm breaking up but that's a break
From this sameness and psychosis
I'm right here if you look for me
Just in case you hadn't noticed
