Subconscious Expression of Depression

Is this universe for real?  
If it is, my life can't be!  
How is it possible that things continue  
on a soap opera script course  
that could never happen in a real world?  
I must be someone's nightmare  
and no matter how bad the dream gets  
they never wake up  
Well whoever you are  
WAKE the FU CK UP!  
I'm tired of being your  
subconscious expression of depression  
Every time I think it can't get worse  
the curse  
doubles  
down  
There's no rock bottom in this black hole of a bottomless pit  
 and I'm sick and tired of impossible odds  
in a fixed deck of marked cards  
I don't want to play anymore  
I've been dealt my last hand  
I fold  
you win  
whoever the fuck you are  
just take the dam pile of chips and go!  
There's no way to beat your bluff  
when you hold all the aces  
I can't run on a wobbly leg  
and my hand is just as lame  
How can life be Hell  
and then be destined for more of the same  
for an eternity in the after-life?  
What is the point of it all?  
Life is a conspiracy between God and Lucifer  
for bored deities to enjoy eternal entertainment  
as we jump through hoops of fire and brimstone  
I just never put on my make-up and squishy red nose  
Someone stole my big red wig and white spotted suit  
so I'm left here to freeze in the nude  
until the fire consumes me  
Just get it the fuck over with already  
I'm tired of being me!
