The original idea was a list of things stopping me from writing. this is the result:
i've got nothing original in my head
my thoughts are dead
it's already been said.
i've lost my inspiration
i'm afraid to see in the dark
it's too hard to start.
i can't find anything motivating
and i'm too used to waiting
nothing in this life
feels free anymore.
there is nothing in my brain
i long ago finished going insane
i'd have to do drugs
to feel like myself again.
i have no identity
i gave up long ago
in getting free.
cuz what's the point of being free
when there's nowhere interesting to go?
all that creativity is for someone else
i put my dreams on the shelf
and when i wasn't looking
someone came in the nite
and stole them away.
all that's left inside of me
is an endless agony
of vague wanting
but not knowing
what it is
anymore
i no longer have thoughts in my head
they stopped making sense those things i said
and i'm nothing but the living dead
and i've forgotten how to sleep.
i'm gripped by moments of unreality
blind panic
anger
and homicidal fantasy
why the fuck doesn't life add up
to identifiable reality?
my words have no rhythm
i lost my soul
i have no ambition to move me anymore
each step i take
leads to further disaster
the harder i try
the more chaos swirls faster
help i can't see
my vision is failing
i don't know why this grief is hailing
down on me.
it seems i've been writing
the same pages repeatedly
in different ways
played to contrast
but really the same
i'm lost and alone
pissed off
confused
i never know
what the fuck to do
i'm too old to just blindly believe
but look to young to know whats good for me
my thoughts don't match
my personality
nor do they match the outside of me
why this fear?
is it because when i sought the truth
i realized this is the biggest lie of all?
no one likes my attitude
i'm not sure what i've got to prove
so i just don't bother to.
what difference does it make anyway?
no one listens to a word i say
i thought i would remake myself
start life again as someone else
i realized to damned late
that it was a big mistake
i have no roots
i've lost my friends
i'm all alone at the end
no one to trust
i've got no faith
always looking behind me
sick of being afraid
slowly dying inside
consumed by rage
and a need to feed
not sure how much more i can take
nothing clicks or falls into place
just more chaos
as i fall further from grace
i used to hope
i used to dream
i used to care and have beliefs
i thought i knew
where i wanted to go
who knew i could sink this low?
i'm trapped in this body
that's sick and weak
my life feels empty
what's in it for me?
everywhere i look people have given up
and now i too
no longer give a fuck
