Ego death, the name on the check
With shaky hand, I pay my respects
Deep in the heart and out from the neck
She gave me a smile and told me I’m next
You go back and you circle down
Do I exist when you’re not around
Going through the motions
Without making a sound
Ego death, the kids are depressed
Cuz all they know is how to reject
Chasing thrills, jump outta the wreck
Laughing harder, slamming eject
Drinking just to drive
It’s a race to the bottom
They’ll never now why
We just live to die
Headlight illusions
Panic and confusion
I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to do
Nothing ever made sense to me
Got sentimental energy
From living in the absence of your memory
Don’t look at me, I got too much on my mind
Don’t look at me, I got too much to hide
Keeping all the built up blood inside
I don’t want to look both ways
Dancing round my future grave
I’ll disappear in only a couple days
We just live to die and I’ve been trying every night
To find the words to make it worth it
Like a picture painted perfect
We were all just built to spill
Cheap thrills, laced pills, yeah you know the drill
Perfect from now on, I promise
(I don’t know if that was honest...)
I don’t know if I’ve ever really been honest with myself
Put the bottle on the shelf
I don’t need no fuckin' help
Help not needed
Sentiment has been repeated
Left alone in the dark can’t see shit
I don’t need it
I'm armed to the teeth
I can forget anyone
So easily
So easily
So easily
