The creeks in the house
Echo in my mind
As I walk across the floorboards
Silent
So silent
Painfully silent
Reach for my headphones
Try to block out the silence
Such loud obnoxious silence
Scream out
But nothing comes out
Of my stupid little mouth
Ring
Ring
Ring
No one picks up
Still alone
All alone
Walk outside
Barefoot
In the snow
Feel the cold
Feel the pain
Feel the snow creep in my mind
Walk back inside
Scream
Say goodnight
