Once Awake - Make A Change... Kill Yourself

Once awake I was — vibrant with a thirst for life

An insatiable hunger for the word and everything it had to offer

Come on, anything, anyone, anywhere, anytime

No challenge too great to overcome

Possessed by a determination to be strong and survive

Now the world passes me by unnoticed

I can barely crawl out of bed, let alone find the motivation to go on

Feeding this useless machine of rust old broken parts

Falling apart from wear, weathered by use and abuse that never seem to fit

together, no matter how hard I try

Everyday a new puzzle left unsolved

The future never held less meaning

Once awake I close my eyes and simply drift away

My thirst has been drowned

My hunger has been quelled

I am nauseous from the feast of life

There is nothing left of me, there is nothing left for me

No passion, no hear, no purpose, no soul

Never shall I be what I once was

A dreamless sleep I seek

Once awake I was
