Slough of Despond

A broken back rest upon this bed
Fleeting failures prevail at letting in
Dreadful disdain, it's weighing me down
I can't stand to watch this world drown
Failing to find happiness
Feeling the loss of innocence
Reeling from forcing this body to work
Completely lost my sense of worth

I've become detached
My fears have grown unmasked
Disassociate from me
Hear my silent plea
Diluted delusions
Unaffordable solutions
Intricate plans to make some noise
Anything to escape from the void
I've become detached
My heart has collapsed
I so long to be free
Please, come rescue me
Please come rescue me
There's no ray of sun to be seen
Please come rescue me

Again, again
This house is not a home
Again, again
This world has made me feel alone
I can't seem to find a purpose
Beyond feeling worthless

HU
Black spots engulf the night sky

Drag my body
Let my arms flail free
Drop me in the shower
For a change of scenery
The plaster on the walls
Peels as time decays
I long to feel the motivation
To even try to change
I've become detached
My heart has collapsed
I so long to be free
Please come rescue me

It always starts
When I'm feeling safe
Lay down and die
Try to save some face
This is all I've known
And all I'll ever have
This garden of grief
Is where I'll make my stand

Again, again, again, again
This house is not a home
Again, again, again, again
This world has made me feel alone
I can't seem to find a purpose
Beyond feeling worthless
Again, again, again, again
This house is not a home
Again, again, again, again
This world has made me feel alone
I can't seem to find a purpose
Beyond feeling worthless
