Tapping The Vein

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
