dying lullaby

Electric and Torn
I’m electric and torn, and I am not whole.
See the sun - a light bulb.
And the ocean - a bathtub full of water.
I feel like taking that light bulb
and putting it in that bathtub
and falling asleep in the water.
I’m electric and torn,
Broken so far
I need something but I am not getting it
My core is cracked,
Foundation is crumbling
I can no longer sing my soul
My spirit hurts
I’m electric and torn.
Is it sick or wrong?
Is this the worse thing to do when I feel like giving up?
I am broken,
you wouldn’t guess it if you saw me.
All the smiles and the cheer, the happy and the loud.
I bet you couldn’t guess
I’m not worth it in the end.
I’m electric and torn.
I’m electric and torn, and I am not whole.
See the sun - a light bulb.
And the ocean - a bathtub full of water.
I feel like taking that light bulb
and putting it in that bathtub
and falling asleep in the water.
I’m electric and torn,
Broken so far
I need something but I am not getting it
My core is cracked,
Foundation is crumbling
I can no longer sing my soul
My spirit hurts
I’m electric and torn.
Is it sick or wrong?
Is this the worse thing to do when I feel like giving up?
I am broken,
you wouldn’t guess it if you saw me.
All the smiles and the cheer, the happy and the loud.
I bet you couldn’t guess
I’m not worth it in the end.
I’m electric and torn.
