what can i write about now when all of my life is just doctors appointments guess i could sing about how i barely get out of bed on unemployment nobody cares what i say all that they want is a chorus to cry to not that i care anyway cus i cannot write even when i try to and then if i did would anybody even listen? when did i stop imagining my life as a musician? i dont remember how i wrote the songs that people like i dont remember how i ever lived an actual life cus what is there to say that hasn’t already been said all my songs are "wah wah look at me im so depressed" i cannot say the same thing over and over again i do that at the hospital, i do that in my head im now fully irrelevant, my songs all sound the same creatively constipated, sitting in my bed losing motivation even writing this so hey this song is gonna end without a rhyme
2.
sneaking suspicions in the back of my head heart full of lesions involuntary dread i got like this much to show for the life i have led bruises on my elbows and gum in my bed hair in my eyes so i always look down not pessimistic just cynically sound never go out much, but I’ve been around now im so tired i sleep all the time if i think too much i want to die but constant distraction is no way to live a life every road leads to suicidal ideation and every day feels like an awful obligation if i talk too much i wanna lie but constant downplaying is no way to get by every road leads to lifelong unemployment and every day feels like another disappointment
3.
i dont feel like an artist i feel like a fraud i mean I’ve written a few songs but guess that was all i could squeeze out i swear i have nothing to say nothing to draw or to do everyday when people refer to me like i am someone i just feel like they’re lying or haven’t caught on to the fact that whatever i wrote in the past was just lucky theres nothing left nothing more that i can write about sing about think about, do there is no one to write about, not even you and i know im dramatic, like im singing this song but lets just be real here , this song really sucks

freakazoid 01:06
freakazoid worrywart loser loving heavy heart got sad unhappy oversharing everything i do is crappy ugly creature sucking blood crying drooling dripping snot future looking black and bleak just a barren boring street wired wrongly with no chance born without a set of hands broken in but then discarded now im just left achy hearted got my hopes up like a clown just like me u shoot em down so now im here great disappointment best in business causing problems mentally deficient fool without plans or proper tools loner living dumb despair pulling at my damaged hair growing up is never fun you get no bang for any buck groundhog day is every week stuck inside this hamster wheel

wrung-out 01:32
there is very little left of me im wrung out like a rag and like a raggedy doll i keep flopping down onto my bed i have less and less to give and more and more keeps piling up i have lost a lot of friends and its beginning to look like its my fault where do depression stop and i start? or are we one and the same? why should i strive for something better if that part never changes?
 every shrink i've seen this past year has agreed on the same thing its not just a depression when I’ve been like this for 8 years core stock full of sadness, not a smidge of progress not even a little bit to even out the odds my neighbours always noisy helps to drown out thoughts (unintelligeble) i want to die i wanna die i wish i was dead i dont wanna be alive i want to die i want to die i want to die i dont want to be alive
6.
ill write again , not out of spite but out of hope that something might cross my mind and hope to live wouldn’t even know it if i suddenly woke up like them happy blissful ignorance they dont even seem to see the sun dont shine in their tv but still ill write and write i will ill take the stupid happy pills and never sleep a day again but maybe i can see my friends instead of staring into space for six or seven hours straight and maybe i can dig a well to throw my wishes into hell, ill give my all to feel like you to think that ill be happy too i used to once, but somethings changed something grown from years of pain and if i look within i might slit my wrists and hope to die so ill look outwards walk the streets distract myself with weeks of sleep ill break the pattern another day too tired to get better, they all ask me:how, how can i help? but i can’t even help myself im worn out like a pair of shoes i've been around Iive paid my dues i’ve seen the tunnel and no shit there is no light at the end, just more of this
7.
lord knows i’ve put the work in done my time didn’t speed to the finish line did my job the way it was intended and when the blue print of my life was trash childhood full of broken glass i think i did my best with what i’ve gotten and i am not ungrateful even though my fate has been just endless blows to a self esteem thats already non-existent and if i rot away cus i can’t get well it doesn’t matter, god im swell this was your great big plan for me, remember?
8.
loser 02:22
neuroscience so i can understand my brain constant lying to subtly downplay the pain of being non-existent and see through like a slug of being so convincing that no one really knows whats up i was born a loser and i was a loser growing up I always say the wrong thing i always hate the things i want i always cause commotion and if you put me on the job i am almost useless i am almost always wrong seeing patterns in sporadic random acts doesn’t matter no one cares and no one asked im a bit reclusive i just clam up on the spot introducing: what you see is what you got i was born a loser and im still a loser now i am lost in childhood i can’t mourn it and grow up i always speak in twisters or i tend to make you laugh but im not that funny its just how most people react if im playing wack-a-mole with god am i the hammer or the beast? is god just pest control how he is constantly tryna get rid of me someones gotta know, I’ve done so many tests for nothing at this point someone has got to have the answer in their pocket

staying up until 4 in the morning breaking my skull on my bed slash coffin biting my nails till they grow out crooked tried to stop once but i just couldn’t skin picking is my favourite past time eating my body till theres nothing left i did everything wrong and tried to correct it that in itself is the worst thing i did i am playing guitar and expecting a sign that instead of a corpse i am really alive cus i feel like im dead everyday of the week chewing tobacco till im numb in the cheeks i am doing my best but at best its mediocre every card that i draw is a joker either way this is not what i payed for all of this pain just to turn out a loser? can’t i at least win a couple of matches? ill never heal if i always need patches all of my skin is just scratches on scratches every surface is bandaids and bandages pouring bleach onto every surface every infection is making me nervous it seems like I’ve lost every sense of purpose and i keep expecting the worst of the worst breaking the habit is not worth the trouble i would bottle it up but i dont have a bottle instead i sleep and im breaking a record napping until my eyesight is checkered im sorry im dirty i am covered in sewage hit rock bottom again which is kinda routine now been crawling around down there looking for my brain a light at the end of these shit covered drains i finally did, i killed myself but i promise, i promise it was in self defense the me thats deciding where my life is going is tryna sabotage me, i swear i just know it i suck at surviving, my life is a mess now who let me steer the wheel, who can i blame for how everything has just fallen apart who in the world thought that that was a smart move can’t i at least win a couple of matches? ill never heal if i always need patches all of my skin is just scratches on scratches every surface is bandaids and bandages pouring bleach onto every surface every infection is making me nervous it seems like I’ve lost every sense of purpose and i keep expecting the worst of the worstestestestest

i’ve been sad for so long i’ve been sad for too long to keep fighting keep holding on keep holding on to silver lightning breaking habits is hard when i dont really wanna easier to stay in my room and do jack shit watching tv shows about angels and demons doing crosswords sleeping heavy without dreaming same depression i’ve been in since i was a child i can’t forgive it all this time I’ve wasted crying god is but a puppetmaster boobytrapping cus he can im stuck inside this empty barren god forsaken nara dreamland nothing gives me pleasure just like nothing really hurts its just an empty void of static just a road of unwalked dirt
