Numb the Ache

Time neglects these wounds that need addressing

Harbors any attempt at slow progression

How do I keep a restraint on my aggression?

Cause I’ve grown tired of suppressing the way that I feel

Kill the ache

Ease the pain

Level the blade

Free my mistakes

Take me away

Regressing fast is a slow defeat

This illness killing off the better parts of me

Bound by my medications

They keep me alive

In a world run by greed

Can I afford to live?

Will I get by?

Will I get by?

Thousands to keep me breathing

Zero to just let me die

When I was younger, that’s when I truly live

Life was exciting but it all went to shit

As time went on, everything changed

The past is the past, it’ll never be the same

I can’t help but to fall back on the memories

How they all faded and now that part

Just feels dead to me, out of reach

I know I’m losing a battle

That never seemed to belong to me

I’m only 23, but half my life is spent

If you’re not rich in health

You may as well be dead

Nobody tells you there’s no room for the diseased

Collapsing beneath a world run by greed

You’ve taken everything

Why let me be free?

Struggle in silence, I can’t be seen

Thousands to keep me breathing

Zero to just let me die
