I was seeing a lot of people writing about burnout on here recently. I feel for you. I was in a mood and started writing lyrics and drawing a cartoon. Here is the aftermath. I think if you can't feel anymore, maybe you will feel this song. Drawing and writing got me out of bed today, that's dramatic and I'll spare details. But you all know that feeling. <3

Original Lyrics from me

Stress, nausea, feet beneath me. Waiting uncertainly no failsafe, depleted Untested beyond tested Weathered all the way through Apathy, lack of happiness Quivering like a shrew Forced to sign up Kicked on the way out No one hears the silent screams Trapped in a cycle Full of doubt

The screams are so deafening But only in my thoughts Every resource taken Methodically forsaken Burnt to a crisp Wondering in the mist What is this life for To suffer and be ignored Based on my own principles And listening to others Ive built walls around myself No way to go forward

If champions are forged from years of blood Then I should find my diamond statue saluting me back in the face in the future Where have all the heros gone To bring peace with a simple song Heavy burdens lose their weight The solo fighter stomps out hate

Where are the moments Of joy and happiness For anyone else I would never wish this Forgiveness and care Have gotten me nowhere If I cannot be selfish Then why do I feel alone The highs and lows Have reached a breaking point I cannot function I can't feel Debating if anything here is real

Just a few tiny threads remain Before I hit the edge again I feel im falling quickly Some say that I cant see making me believe That my bleeding knuckles Are just for vanity Sacrificing health to please the weak I see the ground is still beneath me Panicked heart waterfall tears Dread appears as friend

If champions are forged from years of blood Then I should find my diamond statue saluting me back in the face in the future Where have all the heros gone To bring peace with a simple song Heavy burdens lose their weight The solo fighter stomps out hate
