Dear Netherworld (Sincerely, Ichijyou)

With every second that goes by I only grow in pain

This world has turned to poison

Painful suffocation

Every minute of my life, it’s there, it never leaves me

For every heartbeat I feel, I’m stuck a moment longer

The walls are closing on me

Normally I’d let them crush me

Only I know I’ll still be alive to feel the pain

Except you, there are no escapes

Normally people think that’s false

But then I say to them

“Then I when I still hurt?”

[chorus 1]

I need you

Come get me

Sweet eternal slumber

Embrace me

Take me from

All my current hauntings

Take my wrist

and yank it

Make me sleep forever

and ever

and ever

Please don’t leave me here

No I can’t

No I won’t

I can’t take this anymore

All the pain

that I feel

Makes me bleed on the inside

It’s painful

Please take me

I don’t want you to leave me

I have been

forsaken

Sincerely, Ichijyou

On every morning when the sun rises

and I realize I’m stuck here another day

My tears fall

Every night when the sun sets

Next to my tainted mattress

I pray to Almighty God

“Why didn’t you…!”

[chorus 2]

I need you

Please take me!

Sweet eternal slumber

Hold me tight

so that all

My hauntings can’t reach me

Touch my eyes

and close them

Don’t let me rise again

forever

and ever

Let my tries summon you

No I can’t

No I won’t

I can’t take this anymore

All the pain

All the people who’ve given up on me

All the people who don’t

understand, all the screaming

All the cuts

My fake friends

My precious innocence

All the rapes

All the lies

All of the ridicule

All the fake family

All of the names I’ve been called

The bruises, all the times

my opinions have been torn

The neighbors molesting and

breaking my sanity

The bullies, haters

People who won’t take “No”

The ones who don’t believe me, the countless

failures I’ve endured

My school years

My childhood

My whole entire life

My uncle, my father

Take it all

Sincerely, Ichijyou
