Please find reprieve in the silence between breaths
Cause it's the only calm we seem to find outside of death
These words like poison, can't seem to hold my tongue
I choke them down till they flood my lungs

It burns like rotgut
Cover your ears
Or sew my lips shut
Sew them shut
Seal my fate, I'm a waste
I always fail to reciprocate, fuck

I'm only living by habit
And life just won't have it

My greatest fear is you feeling distressed by my presencе
Would you feel happier the more wе put ourselves at distance?

We stray from each other in our greatest times of need
We trace the paths, we've already passed
Just to see if we still bleed
Won't you
Please just shed my skin
Let's not let this end
Please just shed my skin
Shed my skin

ひきこもり (Hikikomori)
A victim of complacency
I'm no longer the safe haven you once found refuge in
So please kill the ghost who's made its home
In your lover's skin

I hate myself for the man I've become
Tie my noose, drain my veins
Erase my spirit please
I hate myself for the man I've become (so numb)
Tie my noose, drain my veins
Save yourself from me
