I’m skipping dates
To get past the time
And I’m stealing food from work
Just to get by
I’ve been sleeping through the day
And smoking through the night
I haven’t seen the sunlight
Since 2009
I wake up to sunsets
And watch it arise
And when I retire
It burns through my eyes
Money spent from cigarrettes
The ash of my pay
My eyes will fade to yellow
And I’d kill myself, but I’m too afraid
And all of my clothes
Piled up on the floor
Building up a barricade to seal up my door
I can’t remember how to feel anymore
So I’ll seclude to my room
And block out the world
One meal a day
So I can pay rent
And I haven’t called my mother
Since god knows when
I don’t make an effort
To stay in touch with friends
And I don’t have the room
To let anyone else in
And all of my bills
They cease to be paid
My debt’s never ending, like the shore of the bay
When I close my eyes, I just see your face
Standing by the seaside as I’m washed away
And I can’t be sure
But I’m fairly certain I haven’t felt like this before
Try to bargin with the devil but my cries are ignored
And I can’t get into heaven cause I was never born
The only place I belong
These four concrete walls
And if I don’t wake up in your bed
I don’t wanna wake up at all
