Let me be invisible today
And just hide in plain sight
If I make it through the day
I’ll embrace the darkness of night

“Do Not Disturb” shows in my eyes
Go on, leave me alone
It shouldn’t come as a surprise
When my eyes turn to stone

It’s not that I feel numb
It’s a funk I can’t explain
The words just won’t come
But I’m trying to stay sane

No inspiration this morning
Makes it hard to begin
I didn’t heed the warning
So my wheels slide and spin.
