TRANQ. by julieraptor

released September 13, 2025

Take it all
It’s not like there’s anything left
Rip my heart out, skin my flesh

No way out
I scream but there’s no sound
And there’s no one to be found

Nothing helps
Not even a script or off the shelf
People mean well
But you can’t come clean
There’s no one you can tell

God
If time can’t freeze
If you won’t let me be
Just sedate me

TRANQ.
TRANQ.
MAKE IT STOP
I NEED A TRANQ.

No one’s listening to me
Put me down, put me to sleep
Don’t even grieve
This secret stays with me

I’ve become a zombie
Hold me down, let me bleed
Don’t intervene
This secret stays with me
