Waking up already sinking , ocean's vast
Hot shower ,still drowning, gone too fast
Back to bed,not breathing ,it cannot last
Mind overloading by demons from my past

I work from home ,bring the office to me
All in my head, agony doesn't pay hourly
I invited demons cause I've been lonely
Working together we kept life gloomy
After-hours taking it's toll on my kidneys

Wake up, still at work,put in overtime
Struggle,stumble,fried out my mind
My demons taking me, a moonlight drive
Swerving wildly, fly off the handle,then a nosedive

The depth's bottomless,abyssal
My brain's powerless, caged animal
Not an apnea test, air's unbreathable
Cardiac arrest, pain in my chest, getting critical
