Melodies from a Mouse
I want to say something I want to say everything And yet, when I open my mouth Su ocation takes my breath
ff
I want to see people I want to embrace someone Being alone is safe as my past has taught me And I won’t, I can’t take risks
ff
I want rest and I need peace Closing my eyes only brings a lucid maze No di erent than my awakened haze When air burns my eyes from keeping awake No rest for the medicated Wicked circumstances are my fate
And when I scroll through my digital world Filled with candy colors and rose colored glass I feel as if I’m fake My reality is only realized in my constant pain In my darkest place is where I nd myself
Fuck the modern age and modern aspiration Fuck living to work and working to live Only to die from an ache and a desire To nd another place to exist
fi
fi
Outside of this disillusioned programmed dimension
sucks too
But the real world
fi
I am the maze, in the haze So why can’t I nd a way out? e universe rains with laughter, it’s experiment was designed to tease And the further I explore this world the more I get hurt Do something for me, please?
fi
Th
Keep telling me to hold on To hold out to nd the silver lining God don’t you know that’s all I have done up until this very moment?
I want to feel me I want to feel alive So why does the only option seem to me To be to die?
