so tired

peace embrace me
for i am tired and i'm bored
give me your eternal sleep
i can't keep living by the sword

how did i ever stoop so low?
i shamefully admit, i don't know
once we drank nectar divine
where did it all go?

the merchants flock around me crying:
'a better life! oh so fresh!'
and yet still i gag- for all all their wares
reek strong of rotton flesh

relieve me of these wretched duties
please turn an ear to my shrieks and groans
redeem me from this waking nightmare
all i want, is to come home
