I can feel it hit the nerve I know I've got what I deserve My dreams are full of endless loops I'm wide awake but cannot move I feel it seeping through my veins Don't try to salvage what remains The flies are swirling all around And I can feel it shutting down I cannot stop I cannot rest Staying up is my best bet To get a hint or get a clue And maybe I'll find something new To think about, or cry about Or write a bit to air it out I start to feel so good at night But it all goes back when I close my eyes I don't even know how I could be so sure When now I'm all stretched out inside this blur I cannot find your eyes, and I cannot feel a thing I'm reading into everything but still don't know what it means Keep thinking I'm feeding lies to myself But sometimes the thoughts are the lies in themselves I know that it's real and I know that it's true But it's hard to believe when I'm so afraid to learn I can feel it turn to sludge My mouth is melting into mush No words are left, my tongue is dead I'm just so stuck inside my head I can feel it turn to sludge The day is done and still I rush It's done and I know who to blame It's done and I still feel the shame I can feel it turn to sludge Full of noise and hard to touch A piercing sound hits both my ears It's never been so crystal clear Feeling sorry what's the point? Hands are sticking at the joints Another wasted night away Just typing till it turns to day I can feel it hit the nerve I know I've got what I deserve My dreams are full of endless loops I'm wide awake but cannot move I feel it seeping through my veins Don't try to salvage what remains It's not gonna move It's not gonna budge I don't know how to kill the sludge Death is growing can't you see The times I've tried to count my dreams Get me home and get some rest I think it works I think I'll pass I know you can feel it too When you can't even clean your room All this shit is piling up And I know it will never stop I can feel it hit the nerve I know I've got what I deserve My dreams are full of endless loops I'm wide awake but cannot move I feel it seeping through my veins Don't try to salvage what remains The flies are swirling all around And I can feel it shutting down
