What's this pressure on your chest This heavy head? Why do your eyes scan the room? You're just home in bed Don't be scared of what's behind you There's nothing there And you're not going anywhere That doesn't need you there
Don't be long, don't be It's been hunting me down all the time It's all the time Let me rest It's so hard to understand So hard to say I've taught my legs to stand But I've never felt safe
How could you have known anything? You age but you still don't know Was everything taught in the years of school You missed when you refused to go? Why do you still think It was your choice to get sick? Fail your mistakes, I know you do What they've done to you You didn't choose
Don't be long, don't be It's been hunting me down all the time It's all the time Let me rest It's so hard to understand So hard to say
