How can I sleep
When you're ripping through my brain
Severing nerves
And changing things
To make yourself feel better

You creep into my dreams
And paint yourself up to be
Innocent
Free of all blood on your hands

You're the villain
You are
Not me
I'm just a drowning body
And you're pushing me under

Telling me to
Swim
