“We Are Sick”

I wake up but i dont go out, i sit and i sit and i lay back down

will i be there for a long time?

Were my eyes only halfway closed? Did i see you in the doorway? making sure i was sleeping so soft, and keeping so still, and i never made a sound, but if you werent there to hold me down…

Loving you was never hard to do, but im sick and theyre coming to get me soon

and if they never bring me back to you, will you tell me the truth

will someone tell me the truth?

I walk around but i dont breathe out, i stumble like a child and i fall to the ground

will i be there for a long time?

Did my thoughts only make me numb? did i pretend to be normal? Making sure i was keeping in line, and keeping so still, and i never made a sound, but if you werent there to hold me down…

Loving you was never hard to do, but im sick and theyre coming to get me soon

and if they never bring me back to you, will you tell me the truth

will someone tell me the truth?

Holding on was all that i could do, but im sick and there is nothing here left for you

and if you hear me from behind your pews, will you tell me the truth

will someone tell me the truth?!
