Get it out of my head
The banging the pounding
The whispers I can't escape
Its here and it's there
GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD!
I can't... I can't breathe
I can't speak
My mouth sewn shut
Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
...Please-
Be quiet
It'll be over soon
Sing me a song
A nicer tune
Quiet the voices

Yes
That's it

Hush now

It's time for me to go to sleep.
