I had half a mind to flunk out of high school
Somehow I winded up survivin',
Now I'm caught up in a fuckin' spiral
Plungin' downwards 'til I self-destruct,
I'm entering the Devil's clutch,
Heaven's pixelated into fairy dust
I remember every time
I wished to end my life,
Whether right away or in the dead of night
For as long I had the methods in my mind
Nothin' else mattered, kinda like Metallica
Except replace the track,
You can tell I wanna fade to black,
I won't take it back, I've been dead
Since my Genesis, with no soul intact
I'm nearing death with a sedative
Even at my brightest, every nightmare
Is no illusion; I'm out of bed, feelin' blue as
Shit... I hope for my last breath,
I just cough red; and to every fuckin' label
Out there, I hope to be promoted,
'Cause nothing's off the table
When you wanna make a profit
Off a dead artist; I used to be their target
Before they swept that 'neath the carpet
