lyrics

I commandeered this car to drive it off of a cliff
That’s my life summarized in a single sentence
I drowned my delusions by drinking a fifth
That’s hook, line, and sinker for an alcoholic
I can’t recall a time I wasn’t chasing this bliss
Maybe as kid before the death drive kicked in
Just wanted to know something different
Than these shitty archaic force fed isms
Life’s an empty march to an unfulfilling end
Its abuse is silenced ‘till the high is spent
I’m scared of the quiet yet I cherish it
Awkward ideals of aspiring hypocrites
When did agony become such a taboo subject?
I thought we were all familiar with it
I was alive to the world but dead to myself
In this ouroboros, Dante’s third circle of hell

[Chorus]
I did all the drugs and I liked them
Escaped the mundane through pharmaceutical bliss
But I’ve had my fun, now I’m over it
Cuz I did all the drugs and I liked them
That was the fucking problem

Life’s the kind of girl that never leaves your bed
Cuz she only works in theory not application
I can’t recall a time where I felt content
So I played with neurotransmitters, flirting with death
Suicidal ideation magnified by drug addicts
And psychonautic exploration through acid trips
Sedation subdued the humiliation
over not replicating the first inebriation
Flew towards the storm ‘cause it’s all I had left
That’s my death put best by metaphorical jest
I sedated illusion by smoking a quarter
In an effort to put my disorders to bed
When did pain become something to circumvent
like I was running headfirst into oncoming traffic?
Was alive on the outside but dead in my depths
Now I play four chords to explore its effects

[Chorus] (x2)

I can’t keep going back!
I can’t keep going –

[Chorus] (x2)
