Lost my frequency

I lost the frequency long ago
At first it hadn’t seemed important
I could barely tell the difference
But once it was gone I couldn’t get it back

There was a time where that didn’t matter
Then it did
And it was too late

They tried turning the nob
Hoping the new frequency would work
But it never did

The nob would twist
Left and right
Back and forth
As they watched me like a animal
Waiting for a new reaction

I would try
Dance to the new sound
Sing the new song
It did work for a while
But the second I tired
they would turn up the volume
The seemed to think if they could drown me in the sound
I wouldn’t drown myself
