I don't want to be here

I don't want to be here
I just want to sleep
To let the wind blow over me
To never have to think

I don't want to be here
People just don't understand
They think that I am spiteful
Or do things underhand

I don't want to be here
Just slowly slip away
To give the world a rest from me
And live another day
