An Obvious Cry For Help

I, I abuse myself
And I, I love fucking myself
And I, can't figure out
Why I'm so miserable
So what the fuck do I need to change?
If you've been around the block enough
Life's luster gets buried in the mud
But you control all your rainy days
If I can't make the sun shine again
Wouldn't I just be better off dead?
I, I've lost control
And I, I cant say no
And I, I've been numbing my brain
And I, I've learned to love the pain
So what the fuck do I need to change?
If you've been around the block enough
Life's luster gets buried in the mud
But you control all your rainy days
If I can't make the sun shine again
Wouldn't I just be better off dead?
If I can't make the sun shine again
Wouldn't I just be better off dead?

Botched
Throw me something I can break
I swear it won’t be like the last time
Cause there’s a feeling I can’t shake
And it’s eating at my insides
Codependent, it’s so pathetic
Brute force this tepid connection
Hold on with all you got left
And pray you can still change something
No more hiding behind your sheet rock defenses
Time to take the gloves off and show me what you’re made of
I’m rotting, decomposing, tear me down piece by piece
I’m burning, crying and screaming, gag me up and restore the peace
There must be something I can take
To take me back to the first time
Take your vows and drive that stake
Through whatever feeling I got left
Take your shot and pray it keeps me down
Cause when the dust clears there’ll be nothing and no one left to drown
Waste my time, over and over and over again
Waste my time, I’m begging you to soak it in
I’m rotting, decomposing, tear me down piece by piece
I’m burning, crying and screaming, gag me up and restore the peace
I’m rotting, decomposing
I’m burning, crying and screaming

Put Me Under

Suffocating on apathy
This carbon monoxide will help me breathe
I don't wanna go to this party
But inside lies my hopes and dreams
Strangers act so callously
As if they see what's underneath
Fast-tracking drunk and disorderly
I'm killing myself by any means
I can't take this any longer
Please give me something stronger
I cant take this anymore
Please just put me under
Drowning in uncertainty
Put on a smile through gritting teeth
Doing dumb shit then saying sorry
I know I'm insecure but you're just mean
Overdosing on anxiety
All my shortcomings on repeat
Half dead and waiting patiently
I'll finish the job by any means
I can't take this any longer
Please give me something stronger
I cant take this anymore
Please just put me under

I Don't Need You

I don't need you to tell me how to live my life
Blacking out every single goddamn night
Relationships fade at the first sign of strife
Fucking up's the only thing I do right
Losing this fight one day at a time
But trust me I'm doing just fine
Surviving on empty promises and lies
I don't need you to catch me when I slip
I'd rather bask in this pile of shit
Love is nothing more than a bad trip
Steeped in all the faults I'm too afraid to admit
Losing this fight one day at a time
But trust me I'm doing just fine
Surviving on empty promises and lies
Couldn't keep my mouth shut
Even if I tried
All I wanted
Was an ounce of joy
Everything I've loved
Bludgeoned and destroyed
It's such a shame
That we have to say goodbye
It's such a sad thought
That this is how we say goodbye

Goodbye Blue Monday!

Oh no, there goes the goatfucker again
The temptation of a smile pulls you right back in
With everything to lost and nothing left to gain
But it's so easy when nothing turned out like you thought it would
Search inside your fantasies and all your wildest wet dreams
Losing sleep wondering if you'll ever be happy
Burnout or just a drought or is it time to hang up
Say farewell and wish 'em well 'cause they're not coming back
Don't leave me here alone
I can't do this on my own
Oh no, the bastard's jumped in the hole again
Pull your ropes up, there was never any chance of saving him
It's better down there to fester with undeserved elation
And the arrogance in knowing good things are on the way
Search inside your fantasies and all your wildest wet dreams
Losing sleep wondering if you'll ever be happy
Burnout or just a drought or is it time to hang up
Say farewell and wish 'em well 'cause they're not coming back
Don't leave me here alone
I can't do this on my own
And in some stupid fantasy
We'll all know what it's like to be happy
And in some stupid fantasy
You and me don't have to be lonely
And in some stupid fantasy
We'll all know what it's like to be happy
And in some stupid fantasy
You and me can say Goodbye Blue Monday!
Don't leave me here alone
I can't do this on my own

pickmeup

In bed wishing I was high as fuck
If only I could just stand up
If only I wasn't stuck in this rut
Merrily pissing my life away
Don't wanna wake up to another day
Don't wanna deal with all these cunts
But the store's about to close and I'm out of booze
I need a pickmeup so I can finally wake up
And take some responsibility
I need to take control so I can feel whole
'Cause I'm the root of all my misery
Standing around like a waste of space
I'm praying and begging to get out of this place
Even though the door's wide open
Bad vibes permeate the air
Another mental breakdown I'll chop of my hair
How fucking unique and original
But it's still way cheaper than therapy
I need a pickmeup so I can finally wake up
And take some responsibility
I need to take control so I can feel whole
'Cause I'm the root of all my misery
So why bother trying when it's all in vain
Lost so many times now I don't wanna play this game
I need a pickmeup so I can finally wake up
I need to take control so I can feel whole
I need a pickmeup so I can finally wake up
And take some responsibility
I need to take control so I can feel whole
'Cause I'm the root of all my misery
