A song written while struggling with relapse and toxic influences in my life. Lyrics were written in 2017 during the peak of my drug use and added to in 2023 while I was purging everything unusable in my life and mourning time and energy that seemed wasted. Sometimes burning it down feeds the soil so new life can grow. Some call it faith, I call it acceptance. Use your past as an asset, not a liability. If you learned from it, use it.
-Devyn Saturnus
lyrics
I don't know what to
or what you want me to do
Guess I never asked you
Everything is so wrong
never try to make it right
Someone come help me
cancel fight or flight
Tears Evaporate
Salt On The Wounds
All Life Incinerates
My Failure Is Shown
Feel it in my head
Feel it in my skin
Time's atrophy will always win
Watch me decay
I'll watch your body rot
I can no longer be
something I am not
An animated accident
electrified flesh
The loss of innocence
heading for infinite crash
It's all gone It's all gone
All the things that mattered
It's all gone
It's all gone It's all gone
Hope Against A Wall
Fucking Splattered
Tears Evaporate
Salt On The Wounds
All Life Incinerates
My Failure Is Shown
Finishing last in the human race
Cannot survive in this place
Tricked into this by my shadow
This, the void, I will follow
Tricked into this by my shadow
This, the void, I will follow
Tears Evaporate
Salt On The Wounds
All Life Incinerates
My Failure Is Shown
