Nighty Night Bitch
Now I lay me down to sleep
With these monsters in my head
Whispering with their hushed voices
Haunting my stay here in bed
I'm trapped in their clutches
They're underneath my skin
... I can't escape them here
Aching to ooze blood again
Confusion engulfs me in a flame
My candle casts shadows on the wall
Memories flashing before my eyes
Damn them to hell... Fuck it all
I don't know why I'm like this now
So weak in character and spineless
I can't fucking think clearly anymore
The voices are so loud tempestuous
I'm smothering and I don't know how
But when I cry I can hardly breathe
I used to never shed an errant tear
Now it comes so easily... pointlessly
It's solving nothing, nothing at all
Just burning my eyes with a taste of hell
Making me wonder if I should be here
If my passing would be just as well
I wonder if I'm any good to anyone
What my purpose on earth is
I'm not feeling the passion or will
I feel like a piece of worthless shit
Sorry for the depressing scribbling... I'm honestly not sure where all this is coming from :/
