Overdose to Sleep - I Watched You Beg For Mercy

Lyrics:

Flesh rotten to the bone

Just one hand, to finger fuck my soul

And molest the innocent parts of me

That I keep so close

I'm violated by my mind

Ill leave everything behind

Because I can't live like this

I don't want to live like this

The constant nagging

In my ears

"Just kill yourself"

"Cut off your arms"

"They're coming for you"

Who? Who?

Who is they, and who the fuck are you?

These voices, what's in front of my face

-- Such a bitter taste

I can't erase

My mom died in front of me

Organs removed

Tied to a cross

And I couldn't move

I watched her scream

Beg for fucking mercy

But they killed her slowly

Just to fucking hurt me

I'm scared, I don't want to die

I can't keep living this life

But maybe its time --

-- It might be time to give suicide a try

Mom

Dad

Baby sister, that baby girl

You changed my whole life

You were my whole world

But I wish I could see you

In the same light

But I can't because I watched you fucking die...

You struggled to breathe

You cried out to me

I couldn't help

I couldn't help at all...

Your first words

Was just you, gargling my name

Choking in your own blood

I'll never be the same

Now I must end it all

This grief, the guilt

And violation of my purity

It took every ounce of joy away from me

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

I don't want to be alive

Just take me away

I don't want to live this way

I wanted to love you to the grave

So take me away....

I don't want to be alive

Fuck...

This is from our upcoming song. It is very personal to me. (Overdose to Sleep)

This song is about my trauma relating to my psychosis. I am schizophrenic and have PTSD due to some of my hallucinations and episodes. This song was meant to be a cathartic way for me to let it all out. The lyrics aren't intended to be edgy or for shock value, I was just trying to get everything out all at once as it's been building in my mind for many years.

I can't say when this will be released yet. But if you enjoyed this or found it interesting, you might like my band Overdose to Sleep. We recently released an album called "Cold, Slow Death of Youth". It's available on Bandcamp, YouTube and all streaming platforms.

This song makes me really vulnerable. I hope you all understand why I made it. It's okay if you have criticisms, all I ask is you keep it as respectful as you can... If not it's alright. But yeah. Thanks for tuning in.

I had the most jarring and detailed nightmare in my life just now. I need thoughts.

I am no stranger to dreams and nightmares. I take a medication that makes me dream vividly, but I've been instructed by my doctor to decrease the medication due to some other side effects, the nightmares being one of them. Now my nightmares are usually pretty predictable, I'm in a bad situation and can't get out type of deal... But this was completely different, and it's been an hour and I'm still so confused and rattled by it.

So I went to sleep last night and had this dream I was in this Japanese facility, like this school almost that followed a really rigid and weird schedule full of strange rituals that didn't make sense. like there was a live birth ritual where all the men had to strip down and stand behind this barrier while a woman in labor screamed and gave birth. All we could do was stand there and listen as she screamed her labor pains. Then after this was over, I was instructed to put my clothes on and take the elevator to floor 12, but had to pass through this bathroom where they hand sterilized you and your clothes with random substances. Then I reached the elevator and I was in it for about 3 seconds with somebody else. I saw somebody coming down the hallway so I went to put my arm in the door to let them make it, but the elevator plummeted down super fast. I didn't press the button, and while we were going down I felt really calm and locked in on everything, didn't feel too much "danger". The guy said to me something like "oh, they're going to piss you out man. Everything changes now."

So I finally make it to the bottom and the guy is gone and it's just me. The door opens and I'm in this dark, beautiful lake shore with the moon above everything and it's super foggy. There's a bronze statue of a man fishing in the middle of the lake. I was wandering around the shore path and I read a plaque that said this area was cursed and God wasn't here to save me. I was looking at all of the trees and they were super still and everything was really quiet aside from the waves gently crashing into the shore.then I reached the end of the path and there's this fleshy wall with a hole in it, and I'm pushed in. I'm being sucked through this digestive track almost and I land inside a bladder full of urine and I'm excreted out through that and I land in this path where there's a gazebo with a few people kinda sitting around anxiously and quietly. There was a very large and muscular man with curly hair who had extremely long arms and shoulders I sat next to and I asked him what was going on. And he told me we were all cursed with a gift, but it comes at a cost.

I dont remember how, but I was transported to my childhood home and I was very young. I found my mom and she was super thin and had a very worn look on her, like she had been battling with grief alone without anyone for her whole life. She hugged me and said "I'll take you to the doctor right now".

So I'm in this children's hospital, but I was in a dentistry unit mixed with a psychiatric unit. The nurses were helping other kids but then I noticed my ribcage was starting to poke out. Like the sternum ball at the bottom was poking extremely visibly through my skin. And then my ribcage started to slowly contort and fold inward on itself. My other ribs flared out almost like bird features unfolding and spreading. I called a nurse and they saw me and wouldn't help me. They kept saying it was normal. I eventually woke up because I felt like my ribs were about to snap.

I woke up super disoriented and felt my ribcage over and over again thinking it was still happening and almost convinced myself I was genuinely cursed from that statue. Does anyone have any sort of analysis on this dream, if anyone has had a similar dream or any potential explanation of why I would even dream this??? It's scared the hell out of me and usually I'm able to move on from dreams like this pretty quickly, but this one was so deeply disturbing I have been unable to.

Thanks

This poem is very personal to me. It's about struggling with finding myself within medication and mental health care, and feeling like a slave to it. I am safe, just writing :). Feedback wanted!

Anhedonia to an eclipsing numbness

What was once a lack of pleasure

Became lackluster in anything at all

The pharmacy has a grip on my livelihood

As I'm persuaded by the soothing voice of psychiatry

Doctor;

I want to feel alive again

Is there a capsule for emotions?

Something that will spring me back to life?

Doctor, doctor;

Let me live freely

As manic as I desire

At least then I could breathe

There's no voice anymore

Just empty noises

That spill from my throat

And pour out my mouth

I'm not pure

I haven't been in a long time

I used to talk in millimeters, and milligrams

Now I speak in a dialect not even I understand

I want the room to think

Without all the fog

I want space to live

But sadly I'm not

When I was 5 I learned to tie my shoes

15 years later I learned to tie a noose

4 more years passed by and my hands are tied tight

And my ankles are chained to the floor

I don't want to be like this anymore

Death isn't an escape

But the allure is so captivating

So many wasted notes

So many lost words

So many distant goodbyes

So much smoke and so little butterflies

I want to be free

From these chains on my feet

But they're locked to ankles

And no one has the key

I want to move forward

I want just a chance

But I'm glued to the thought of

"Will I succeed?" and "I don't know if I can"

I'm crying out to you

These pills rip the joy from me

The way the voices ripped me apart

There's no middle ground to be made

There's no hope to seek

I'm endlessly depressed and

I'm so damn obsessed with

The voice of a final goodbye

The voice that leads me to the end of my life

But I don't want to die

I just want to be alright

...

Where Did I Go Wrong?

This path feels familiar

A stumble and a fall

A faceplant into the dirt

Every time I pick myself up

And every time I breathe new air

But when is the next relapse?

When is the next fall?

My teeth are broken as is

I can't handle another moment like the last

Snow falls on my hands and they melt

But I'm still losing warmth

Everyday I grow jaded

Everyday I grow colder

...

When it's my time to pick myself up

I pray to God I don't get stuck in the mud

Losing breath, losing sight

Losing peace, losing mind

I've lost my glow and it's getting dark

Somebody show me where to start

Back at square one again

I grit my teeth and cry to sleep again

This weight has been lifted off my chest

And I can finally breathe

...

I long to love like I did as a kid

I long to love like my mother did

I long to be free, I long to be happy

I long to hurt, so please tell me

Where did I go wrong?

Why am I craving this?

I'm tired of putting thoughts into songs

And I'm sick of trying to reminisce

I wish you'd die so I could be king

But instead I lack the strength to do anything

...

I told my loved ones I'd never go

I promised my friends I wouldn't die

I've convinced myself that I can be okay

But I don't know how to keep up

Recently par-baked a pie crust... came out too thin!!

Edit: please see comments for recipe. Note: I increased ingredients slightly scale it to a 9 inch dish. Maybe I should've used more dough.

Well, the pie is already made... But I really messed up the crust I think. It's still good, but I really struggled rolling the dough. I've never done any baking at all, let alone par-baking a crust. Any tips on how to keep the dough even, and not make it too thin for the dish? Picture below. If it helps, this is a "pâte sublée" crust.

Deodorants that smell like the One Piece deodorant??

I got a bunch of the straw hat deodorants back when they had that collab and I'm running out. I absolutely adore the scent and my girlfriend adores the scent and I'm gonna be super bummed out when it's gone. Is there any other deodorant anywhere that smells similar?? It has a flowery fruity scent, I can't really pinpoint it completely. Almost pineapple (kind if). I dont want to lose it 😭😭 please help
