I was trying to make a maretu-style song but I did not succeed lol. Maybe in another universe I would’ve had a Maretu-style image too.

Lyrics:

Here I lie awake at night
Ceiling staring back at me
Burning holes into the eggshell paper with my gaze
Now I’m in a daze
Squinting through the haze
Eyes pried open knowing I’ll regret it the next day

Emptiness inside my bones
Filling up my stomach too
Left and right I’m in an angry tussle with the sheets
kicking both my feet
eyes too blind to see
By the time I’m done the dawn is waiting here for me

Something’s weighing on my chest
What did I forget today?
Did I leave the oven on or leave the door unlocked?
Staring at the clock
deafening tick tocks,
Is it way too late to leave and take a little walk?

Light illuminates my face,
staring at an empty screen
mindless scrolling text my eyes are too tired to see
man, I want to scream!
Someone talk to me
Ever slowly losing my grip on reality

The darkness in my chest keeps growing each night
But I persist till morning light

Can someone purge this darkness from my body?
Kill the roots inside my soul
The rate at which the hours pass is killing me
Someone come devour my demons whole

Dirt is pooling up in my chest
Time is ravaging my mind
I’m quickly being swallowed by the hours
Someone please erase the whole concept of time

More and more I eat away
Eat the seconds passing by
Satiating hunger that I do not even want
Now I’m cold and hot,
When will all this stop?
Once I make it to tomorrow everything will drop

The darkness in my chest keeps growing each night
But I persist till morning light

Every night, the world around us gets to fade away but I do not
Lying here, in my own sweat tangled in a mess of blankets feeling hot
Trying hard to quiet down but no matter what my mind’s moving too fast
All around, the world slows down, do you have a clue how long my nights each last?

I am eating my own temper
Feeding on my own distress
Like every single night I try to make a change
But the next’s the same as all the rest

Can someone purge this darkness from my body
Kill the roots inside my soul
The rate at which the hours pass is killing me
Someone come devour my demons whole

I am deep in my subconscious
Buried far inside my mind
I’m dying waiting merely for another day
Someone please erase the whole concept of time
