Doctor of Despair

from art imitates life by David Robert Burrows

lyrics

just like you said, i'll never grow up, or even feel older,
it's my disease, it feeds inside me, i won't sustain without you near,
inside my shell, i feel protected, with all my security,
i might go to hell, but that don't scare me, as long as i get my entertainment now,

everyday is a constant battle uphill,
with the pain that i can't cure with a pill,
and my family succeeds where i fail,
i wonder if they all look down on me,

she needs my help, it's what she tells me, but i don't know if it's true
i'll watch the house, while she's out working, feel so stressed out the anxiety's too much,
another bowl, to calm my nerves, it makes the thoughts go out of my head,
just one more month, til my next payday, feels like i'd rather be dead,

everyday is a constant battle uphill,
with the pain that i can't cure with a pill,
and my family succeeds where i fail,
i wonder if they all look down on me, i feel ill.
