I’m so tired of this dream
That will never come true
I just want to sleep
But pins and needles
Keep my eyes forced open
I wish I could lay
Down and die
Just so that I
Don’t have to breathe
Anymore empty air
I want to be free
From all this pain
In the shadow tree
Of the insane
Let me be alone
Don’t talk to me
Don’t let me see
Don’t force me to
Hang on to this
Broken frame
Inside the picture
Is where I want
To be eternally
The image of happiness
I can never get back
Wrap myself in
The sheets of life
So that death can
Keep me warm
From the cold
Hate me
Love me
Hurt me
Kill me
Save me

"Rap myself in
The sheets of life"
I think the "rap" is supposed to be "Wrap"?
Anyways, I liked that particular stanza a lot. The idea of death keeping one warm is bizarre and very nice.

I like this bit the most
I want to be free

Let me be alone
...it is also one of the only bits with regular rhyme the nonryhming throws you off in places (esp at the beginning when you don't expect it). That's more a style thing though...

The idea of death keeping one warm is very nice indeed and a bit of.. unique I must admit.

I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead, and some come from behind. But I've brought a big bat. I'm all ready, you see. Now my troubles are going to have trouble with me.
