I'm Hiding In The Bathroom While The Dogs Are Barking

I'm hiding in the bathroom
As everything is pain.
Even after the move
They're still the same.
I can't handle them
Since I still need to unpack;
In fact I'd gladly describe them
As a huge pain in my back.
I want to tear my brain out
When I hear that incessant noise.
Every time I hear them bark
I end up losing my poise.
I just can't stand it!
It's driving me insane!
Hey, did I mention how much
I want to tear out my brain?
And no one else will deal with them,
Not my mom or my brothers.
I can't even pretend to not hear them
As I hide under the covers.
My brain keeps screaming
"THEY'RE BARKING! MAKE THEM SHUT UP!"
But I can't really do a thing
And they're just four year old pups.
They only listen to me
And even then they misbehave
So now I'm pretty sure
I'll hate general barking to the grave.
Every tiny noise
Makes me watch to scratch something
But I can't do that, obviously-
And there goes Jumper jumping,
Trying to see what's over the wall,
While Bailey eggs her on.
Anything we try do to doesn't work
And they still fight each other on the lawn.
So I've resorted to hiding
To avoid the responsibility
Until someone notices I'm hiding,
Which is a major probability.
I don't want these things here.
I don't want all the sounds.
I just want some peace and quiet,
Not to be heard in 20 towns.
