thinking on the times that i've hurt myself
pushed my friends away, don't need anyone else
but it didn't help, it was all for naught
i faded away and they all forgot
what happened to that girl you once knew
she's about to leave, she'll be dead soon
you let her cut the ties that held her back
there's no one left to stop her, oh well
warm and alone, my blood seeps through
locked in my own rotting mind
stabbing my heart, nothing else to do
the comfortable pain passed the time
thinking on the ways i neglect myself
zip my mouth shut, pretend im doing well
gentle agony beneath my thin skin
no one ever tries to see
what happened to that smile that you used to see?
it was melted off from how you looked at me
disgusting and misshapen's all i ever was
guess i'll just stay here
warm and alone, my blood seeps through
locked in my own rotting mind
stabbing my heart, nothing else to do
the comfortable pain passed the time
a thousand tiny cuts, a scent of ethanol
loving without meaning, tallies up the wall
i forget myself in the dopamine
wounds flow like a stream
warm and alone, my blood seeps through
locked in my own rotting mind
stabbing my heart, nothing else to do
the comfortable pain passed the time
x2
thinking on the times i gave up on me
thinking on my wish for something i can't be
thinking on the times for which i had regret
wonder how i ended up with nothing left
jamie's performance and melodies are so bubbly and cute, the production is so dancy yet complex and jazzy, the songwriting has such romance and whimsy, it's hard not to fall in love with this album. Drainpuppet
no diving is on a new level for housebreaker. it's a shakespearean tragedy painted with breakbeats, distorted saw waves and ample reverb. it is a melancholy epic the grandiosity of which is unmatched. Drainpuppet
every time dis sings i float away, his voice sounds like an ember fireplace, i need more. we'll have to take what few nuggets of gold ichor he allows us. he's also a gnarly rapper, it's not fair!!! Drainpuppet
