Lyrics
Shake off the dust

Release the tension

Criticizing yourself

To satisfy the one true lust

With my sunken eyes

And lifeless fists

I've but a spine to travel by

If only I could preexist

Somewhere closer to here

Should you slash at my soul?

Taste what I can no longer bear

Negate the loopholes

Undoing this newfound sadness

No call for fanfare

(Anytime soon!)

Mirrors break as optimism fades

What am I even doing in this afterlife?

I desire a palm to snatch the lungs

And give my legs a strike

Endlessness feels so relaxing

Being dead inside is too tempting

Now that I'm done with these cliches

I'll finally pile more on my composure

Here's a depression greater than the 2000s

This comes without vain and uncertainty

But a craving for corrupt hausen

Thought patterns and the need to hand hold

Won't do it for me

For me

(Anytime soon!)

Explanations can try to be justified

While you stay there keeping busy

I'll rot out my teeth by some riverside

What the future holds

Is what's mine for the taking

Here's a depression greater than the 2000s

This comes without vain and uncertainty

But a craving for corrupt hausen

Thought patterns and the need to hand hold

Won't do it for me

Anytime

Anytime

Anytime soon!

Here's a depression greater than the 2000s

This comes without vain and uncertainty

But a craving for corrupt hausen

Thought patterns and the need to hand hold

Won't do shit for me
