Intro

Verse

Wish I was too dead to cry

 My self-affliction fades

Stones to throw at my creator

 Masochists to which I cater

Chorus

You don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

 But once I hold on,

 I won't let go 'til it bleeds

[play the intro again]

Wish I was too dead to care

If indeed I cared at all

Never had a voice to protest

So you fed me shit to digest

Bridge

I wish I had a reason;

my flaws are open season

For this, I gave up trying

One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on,

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I'd died instead of lived

A zombie hides my face

Shell forgotten

with its memories

Diaries left

with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on,

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother;

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on:

I'll never live down my deceit
