No Antecdote

The damage is catastrophic
 The wounds are just too deep
The caffeine doesn't affect me
 The pain just puts me to sleep
The weight that is upon my shoulders
It is just too heavy to bare
The things I can't do because I'm older
 Leave me solemn and full of despair
The cure has not been discovered
 So I'm doomed to die the lonely one
The ache in my laugh is colder
 And my eyes sight just like a gun
The reason why I don't care now
 Really is none of your business
The words from my mouth I swear now
 I just do not like your existence
