I washed my tired body
And turned on the boring TV again
The dull news is going on and on
About something again today
What was most important to do?
There was so much I wanted to do
But I kept being chased by time
There are so many places in this world
But I can’t find a place
To rest comfortably anywhere near me
Even if I lay down and stretch out my legs
My eyes won’t close
Even if I force them shut
I have a dreamless sleep
Whenever I wake up, my breathing is short
And my brain’s hazy for a bit
There’s another meaningless day
And at the end I repeat this again, yeah
Endless fights
Endless sighs
And drawn out yawns
My nerves are on edge, my words are knives
I’m sick of it all
When I pushed my way into this dark room
Did anybody bother to look back at me?
I barely managed to make it through this hard day
How many times did I smile, and were they genuine smiles?
I find the way I’m trapped in my thoughts funny
I’m still so young, but I have so many worries
Just do what you’re supposed to be doing well
Nobody knows anything about how empty my heart feels
And I hate how
All they know how to do is laugh it off
Even if I lay down and stretch out my legs
My eyes won’t close
Even if I force them shut
I have a dreamless sleep
Whenever I wake up, my breathing is short
And my brain’s hazy for a bit
There’s another meaningless day
And at the end I repeat this again, yeah
Is everyone but me happy? I really want to know
Or am I just a kid who doesn’t know how to hide it yet?
Everyone hides it behind their masks
And become numb to the word ‘loneliness’ bit by bit
