Stillborn
This river you drown yourself in
Has no end
Your refusal to live will always last
While you hide in the crevices of your past
This mire you stick yourself in
Has no end
You accept the insurmountable feat
Of a self-fulfilling inability to sleep
This skin you find yourself in
Has no end
You dream of jumping from windowsills
And burn your throat with vicious thrills
This life you hate yourself in
Has no end
You freeze your cells but cannot win
The life you reject will never begin
Has never been
Has never been
Has no end
Your refusal to live will always last
While you hide in the crevices of your past
This mire you stick yourself in
Has no end
You accept the insurmountable feat
Of a self-fulfilling inability to sleep
This skin you find yourself in
Has no end
You dream of jumping from windowsills
And burn your throat with vicious thrills
This life you hate yourself in
Has no end
You freeze your cells but cannot win
The life you reject will never begin
Has never been
Has never been
