Since the daylight has lessened, so has my patience and nerve

Am I losing my sanity?

Is this what I deserve?

I'm staying home

I guess I'll open a window

I need to let in some light

And though it makes me upset, I've begun to accept that's as close as I'll get to stepping outside

Stepping outside has shown me just how fragile I've become, so I handle myself with care, but I'm scared I've come to care too much

Now I fight to survive the days, as I beg for a chance to see tomorrow, knowing, God damn well, it will be the same

Procrastinating change, it's my fault that I'm this way

The place that I once deemed as safe is now the place where I'm confined, just trapped and afraid

I'm constantly checking the clock, in-between all these waltzes around the room, to the symphony of the voices that intrude

I'm staying home

And I'll use my time to try and comprehend all the shit that I've been in

The trees abandon leaves, and shiver in the breeze

Feeling so alone, they wither as they sleep

Maybe I'm no different; hiding from my friends, while dying in this bed

Let me sleep, 'cause I don't wanna face reality

Let me rest

This is the only chance I'll get

Get me the hell out of this
