lyrics

this all encompassing melancholic mind
leave me be
everything is so gray in my eyes
i want to stuff my face in a box where i won't see anything

the dead animal on the road
why didn't i stop
why didn't i pick it up
give it a proper burial
because that's what it deserves
but no one wants to stop in the middle of the road
because we have really busy lives
very fast-paced lives
maybe if they run over me they'll stop and realize
or at least i hope

i'm not "sad"
"sad" is just invading my space right now
but this too will pass

bury me beneath the ground
that way i won't bother anyone
that way i won't bother me either

bury me beneath the ground
so that i won't be a burden
to everyone
and myself

cause i just sometimes don't really like myself
