Living This Way

I close my eyes
Fade away slowing
Eye lids glued shut
Never opening again

I speak goodbye
My voice trailing off
Lips pressed together
Never muttering noise again

Tired of living this way
Walking day and night
In the lie of my creation
Just wanting it to end

Tired of living this way
Hiding in the shadows
So they don't peak inside
Just want to disappear fully

Every cut gets deeper
Every burn gets hotter
I began to let go
My final act

Every breath gets shallower
Every beat gets slower
Until eventually sleep invades
My final goodbye

Tired of living this way
Walking day and night
In the lie of my creation
Just wanting it to end

Tired of living this way
Hiding in the shadows
So they don't peak inside
Just want to disappear fully
