I haven't smiled in years
I haven't cried in years
I haven't loved in years
I haven't lived in years
But at least I've lived these years.
---
I can't breathe
The air's too thick
And my chest's too heavy
I can't breathe
I can't think
Thoughts like water
And my mind is a sieve
I can't think
I can't feel
Everything's grey
And nothing excites me
I can't feel
I can't love
My heart is dead
And gone without a trace
I can't love
Yet my dreams cascade into me like a waterfall,
A tiny hope that I can get up and stand at all.
