Help
alone
alone I sit
in this empty room
always starring at the same tv screen
playing nothing but static
i close my eyes to rethink
am I truly here
in this dark room
wheres the light switch
how do i get light into this room
why is the only light this static
i stair helplessly at the tv
trying to figure out why it’s the only light
this room isn’t real
but it’s all i see
its all i know
everything i know is this tv playing static
everything is in this room
alone
alone i sit
in this room
