Going Blind

I need to see my shirt dripped in sweat
smear grease over my face
Breathe in the lub oil fumes
I need to take a jackhammer
And break the conrete
Till the sound numbs me
Till my nerves cant feel a thing

I need to forget how to talk
I need to fall asleep
Like a dead cow each night
In the heat sweat n power cuts
I need the peace
Of animal life
