They tell me i have to get out of bed
they tell me i have to keep up my strength
i've got to eat something
i'm hoping that the taste will kill me
i have agonized to find a different way
And there is no soothing for the boiling of my skin
there is no comfort here
So what if i'm standing here?
i still hurt from my hair to my feet
i know this is nothing now but once it was everything
They tell me i have to get up and dressed
they tell me i have to start getting out
i've got to keep busy
maybe exhertion will do me in
i have been defiled a thousand different ways
There is no pressure for the hemorraging
there is no healing me
So what if i'm walking now?
i still burn every time that i breathe
i know this is nothing now but once it was everything
It rips me from my dreams
i swear i hear your voice
i run from room to room to find you
So what if i'm walking now?
i still burn every time that i breathe
i know this is nothing
nothing
to me this is everything
