It's rotten work It is for me If it's me It's rotten work To get up in the morning To keep breathing It's rotten work To make coffee And drink water It's rotten work To eat when I'm not hungry And get dressed every day It's rotten work It is to me If it's me It's rotten work To go to work To pay my bills It's rotten work To fake normalcy And mask whatever the hell this is It's rotten work To not just sleep Sleep and sleep and sleep It's rotten work It is for me If it's me It's rotten work To drive each day And not off the highway It's rotten work To be alive And keep caring for myself–or trying to It's rotten work Because all I want to do Is not talk, not eat, not drink Just...sleep.
