Do not presume to think dear sun To ****** away my dreams The dark still holds me in it’s thrall Within the great unseen They will not lift these limbs of mine They wallow in their weight Enjoy the burden of their bonds Refuse to animate A captive to these strains of sleep Gladly shackled to my bed I revel in their sweet confines My eyelids drawn with lead I Self sedate with each warm breathe Benumbed by this safe drug Which toxifies my consciousness I revel in it’s fug I will not wake, I’m staying here Please do not liberate me Reality’sbecome too much For me to cope with lately.

Do not presume to think dear sun To ****** away my dreams The dark still holds me in it’s thrall Within the great unseen They will not lift these limbs of mine They wallow in their weight Enjoy the burden of their bonds Refuse to animate A captive to these strains of sleep Gladly shackled to my bed I revel in their sweet confines My eyelids drawn with lead I Self sedate with each warm breathe Benumbed by this safe drug Which toxifies my consciousness I revel in it’s fug I will not wake, I’m staying here Please do not liberate me Reality’sbecome too much For me to cope with lately.
