I've seen the day I'm dreaming of

I've seen the day I'm dreaming of displayed in full before me
I've heard the silence of the world that used to rush around me
The graying skies are blue once more, with cotton clouds above me
But why am I not happy?

I found my peace and solitude devoid of friends beside me
It's pure delight with only slight a feeling being lonely
I've had the time to reconnect with my own home and family
But why am I not happy?

The chance to do the things I love with no responsibility
Quite possibly I'm free of all demands from my society
I reveled in the plight of victims of their own stupidity
But why am i not happy?

I have it all: the shelter, suit, and sustenance to save me
The shield against the summer heat from breezes from the AC
A shot at fame and glory now that senpai has noticed me;
Why am I still not happy?

Terus mengejar orang-orang itu Tanpa berlari Dan dengan hanya duduk Termenung Dalam seb...

Lockdown Breakdown

I see no point in going on For everything goes dim ahead of me I have no will to carry on Redemption is just not a choice for me Is it because I’m lonely? And why am I so sad? Is my mind going crazy? How could this go so bad? I trapped myself for days on end Repeating every day inside a lie To run from things I should have done But swear to god I really don’t know why Is it because I’m crazy? Else, why am I so glad To yield and say that I’m just lazy? Why has it gone so bad? I see my life regressing back When all around me flourish, shine, and bloom I feel my head does badly lack Some things that could have saved me from my doom Is it some mind disorder? Is it really that bad? That I just can’t be bothered What have had gone so bad? I really want to sort myself But say, those leaves look like a horny mouse Maybe I’ll do it later Or tomorrow Or the day after the day after the day after the day after the day after the day after the day after the day af...
