Bedroom Corner

Leave me be
There is no one in the world
that I want to see

Not you, not him, not her.
Not my lover, not my father, not my mother.
Not a stranger, not any other.

I just want to crawl
in the world's darkest corner
and evade life's brawl

Cause in the shadow
no one can see my black eyes and bruises.
There I can prepare to jump out of my bedroom window

But then everyone would know.
How I couldn't take the struggles of life anymore.
And the last thing I want
is becoming a part of life's freak show.

So I will stay put and fade away.
Pray to God that he's gentle
when I put my head down and lay
dead.
