about

A track about hopelessness and despair.
Being open and vulnerable with your friends and comrades about your mental health is revolutionary.
We need disability and mental health liberation just as much as any other form of liberation.
INTERSECTIONAL LIBERATION NOW!

Lyrics:
Tell me why
After all these years
I still can't stand to
Look in the mirror
With the mask of regret
Clinging to my face
A fabricated smile
My walls defaced
Stunted
Calling out for a hand to pull me out
But not screaming loud enough
To help myself
Devastated by
The lack of my
Own permanence
In everyone's lives
Sleep never comes
I just wait to daydream
Tip toe across the glass
To imaginary safety

Whispers
Growing ever louder
Telling me I'm just a downer
But I can't block them out
Without closing my mouth

Whiskey
Used to be my best friend
But I drowned the world
Now I face the end
With a pocket full of letters
That I'll forget to send

Wishing that
All the times I spent
Waiting by the phone
Wishing anyone at all
Would simply fucking call
Just to ask if I'm OK
Just so I could practice lying
Were better spent
Doing anything but dying

Wishing that
All the times I spent
Waiting by the phone
Wishing anyone at all
Would just fucking call
Just to ask if I'm OK
So I could practice lying
Were better spent
Doing anything but lying

Don't look down
I'm too high
Take my hand
People cannot fly

Don't look down
I'm too high
Take my hand
People cannot die

A long way down
Down to the pavement
Six feet below
Six feet below
Six feet below
But I still hear the priest say
Someone could've saved me

No.
