Need to live
Need to die
Need sleep
Need the night

Want to learn
Want to right
Want to sit
Want to fight

I don't know
Don't trust me
I'm so lost
Can't you see

I'm complicated
I'm clean
I'm satisfied
Not as I seem

Pulled here
Pulled there
Don't know what I want
Do I even care

Shut it down
That's all I ask
A quick escape
Like that'll last
