i'll sleep when i'm dead

Singer:set it off

it's the same each and every night. glare at my screen with two big bloodshot eyes. i'm stuck self-torturing; my meds are failing me. internal clock in smithereens. can't fix this

i'm hopeless. my eyes are stapled open wide

as i lay down on my side. i am bouncing off these walls. notice my hands begin to twitch. unprovoked assaulting of my conscious wit. me and the tv are enemies. sickening static surrounds my mind. i'm losing time

and realizing that

after days of thought that i'm

stuck self-torturing; my meds are failing me. internal clock in smithereens. can't fix this

i'm hopeless. my eyes are stapled open wide

as i lay down on my side. i am bouncing off these walls. as i focus on the clock

time stands still

but i cannot. i should strap myself in bed. i guess i'll sleep when i am dead. talk to myself

lie in the darkness so content. as the sun begins to rise

i can barely shut my eyes. this crazed

delirious mess; laughing at everything i see. my sanity is spent. just tell me where my time went. i'm losing it. attention: all insomniacs

please raise your right hand. and kindly

repeat after me. i guess i'll sleep when i am dead!"
