Coal Mine.
So, hey there, I don't feel so hot
I'm not awake but I can't sleep
My eyes, they hurt, my mind, it rots
The hole in me is getting deep
And these words, I cannot keep-

Pent up inside me any longer
I can't find fucking rest
Ugh, my hate is getting stronger
There's cold fire in my chest
And, I tell you, it's the best-

Chance I have to stay alive
Cuz I feel so fucking isolated
And all alone, I won't survive
But, this loneliness seems fated
And you don't know how much I've hated-

Feeling like a last resort
And always failing when I tried
My tolerance for you is getting short
And now I'm letting less things slide
So now, like a rat, I have to hide-

Inside the tunnels carved by you
Dark and cold, where I should stay
A coal mine, hollow through and through
But this isn't me, it's just not my day
It won't be until I can stay away-

From your indifference that digs this hole
Indifference always eats me whole
I quit trying to keep the stanzas neat
Cuz indifference stole my body heat
And this cold mine made me feel weak

God, I fucking hate this week.
