Death Wish

I've been spending every fucking day biting my tongue til it bleeds
Cause all these words that I speak keep rotting out my fucking teeth
I bite my tongue til it bleeds
I keep rotting all of my teeth
I try to block it out- everything he says to me
But I'm forced to do it cause the devil's watching over me
I try to block it out, but he won't let me be
Why won't you let me be?
Why won't you let me?
I can't look back, and I know it's not just in my head
I'm waking up everyday, but I just wanna stay in bed
Why does this have to be the path I tread?
It's hard to give a fuck, knowing you were born dead
Nobody ever seems to have a fucking hand to lend
I've got shit for luck, and dozens of these so called friends
I'm dying faster than I should intend
It's hard to give a fuck, waiting for your life to end
Why does this have to be the path I tread?
Why did I have to be born dead?
I try to block it out- everything he says to me
But I'm forced to do it cause the devil's watching over me
I try to block it out, but he won't let me be
Why won't you let me be?
Why won't you let me be?
I think I'm dying at the age of 23
I know I'm dying at the age of 23
23 years, and where the fuck have you been?
How could I ever forget the marks that you left on my skin
I always knew this motherfucking house was not a home
I always knew this motherfucking house was not a home
I always knew this house was not a home
Fucked up from all the time that I spent alone
High expectations, but I'm not a fucking drone
My mouth has been shut for so long, it might as well be sewn
It's hard to give a fuck, knowing you were born dead
It's hard to give a fuck, waiting for your life to end
