Failure to Thrive -

I’ll be the victim of cerebral decline

For the duration of my life

Immobilized, I fixate on the floor

This consciousness I endure is ending

I can’t face the day, I can’t run away

I just can’t run away, I just can’t run away

And I can’t sleep

Because at night I shut my eyes to even more

Uncertainty

I just can’t run away, I can’t think or speak

I’m frozen in my bed, my brains awake

But my body is dead

And it feels like I’ve been here before

It’s an illusion no more, I keep circling

I collapse, don’t wait for me to come around

I’m worn, I’m beaten down

I collapse, don’t wait for me to come around

Worn out and beaten down

I can’t sleep, I can’t die, why?
