about

This is a song about not killing myself, but not not considering it sometimes. I have a job now, but three out of four ain't bad when it comes to truth in art. Shoutout to Ableton Live 11.

lyrics

I'll say this up front so you know
I'm not suicidal
I just needed to know there's an exit
If this theatre burns down

All false alarms exist for the real things comin'
I know it must be coming soon
A train who's departure is ten minutes behind
The one before it derailed in the Autumn

I drew a diagram of how we decompose when we die
I didn't account for
I never account for
Nails and hair keep growing

I drew cosmologies of where we actually go when we die
I think it's Hell
I think it's here
It must be now

I fell apart and fell asleep as we drove home
I felt my arms and legs detach themselves
and wither to bone

I drew a bath and lowered myself in
Learn to breathe underwater
or learn if I had got it wrong

For posterity's sake, I'll divulge
all the things I loathe about me
For the future's sake I'll withhold
What's at the heart of the problem

If I face the facts feelings hurt
If I bury it deep, my skin burns
Like a Transylvanian Hunger, a sunbath
as form of interrogative torture
