Funeral Industry (3/12/2022)

you got me on your hit list

i can't afford a therapist

it might be cheaper to die

well, maybe

but the funeral industry

the way it's looking lately

oh, it's bleeding me dry

 

you have made up your mind

to believe a lie

well i'll admit you tried

and i

i could eat a live

wire and then my

brain would be just as fried

 

and you

you can have your pride

and you can take your time

but you can't take what's mine

 

and you will not be the reason

i give up believing

in the good inside

because i

i will keep on breathing

and easily sleeping

purely out of spite
