We Need A Break

We don’t have to take this, we both want to leave we got too close for comfort now we can’t breathe most days loud some days slow Some days proud But most days low We need a break We need a break We need a break We need a break Is this the cost of living? Pay by scrapes on your knees Force each healed cut to open No way to stop the bleed. There must be More than this These dark clouds Is there bliss? We need a break We need a break We need a break We need a break I’ll live loud, oh so loud yeah you won’t escape me you can gossip and talk — you can shout I’ll be me, awful me the cause of all strife in your life The devil you tithe to at night. When you’re cold, all alone Looking down at your phone in the dark Wishing that I just played my part You miss me. Awful me. The one you were destined to know I cast out this burden below. I need a break. You need a break. We need a break. When will this break?
