Tired
numb
that's all i feel

there's nothing inside
but emptiness
like the void

maybe i'm not sleeping enough,
maybe there's too much going on
i can't seem to get up

and i wish i could react like they want
but i'm just too tired

i want to be happy
i want to be free
but there's just a bone-tiredness
that doesn't ever go away

there's so much to do
so much i have to do
but i can't focus

i just want to sleep forever

my legs won't move
i can't will myself to stand

it's too much.
