Have you ever seen this side of me?
Staring off and thinking if this is all there is
I always thought I’d die alone and confined
I’m holding on to what I have, a souvenir that was mine
Like a needle and thread can’t stitch up or mend
Any minor mishap that's been taking over to my bitter end
It’s just my luck again and again
Still going down, and down I spin
Give it up
So if you picked up the phone,
you maybe would’ve known
That this outcast stuck in the past broke
every fucking vow we talked about
It’s not the worst that it’s been
I know that I’ll never win
A goal that’s just out of reach,
like my new year's resolutions
I’ll watch the clock racing to and forth I’ll be pacing
This is the reason I’m this way
this is the reason I’m so afraid
It’s starting up again and now it’s brimming
I won’t hold this in or let it get the best of me
Is something waiting for us at the end of the earth?
I get so existential when I think too much
I know I’m going to die alone and confined
I’m holding on to what I have, a souvenir that was mine
Like a needle and thread,
can’t stitch up or mend
any minor mishap that’s been
Taking over to my bitter end
It’s just my luck, again and again
Still going down, and down I’ll spin
Still going down, and down I spin
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
