Pushit
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I saw the gap again today
While you were begging me to stay
Take care not to make me enter
If I do, we both may disappear
Know that I will choke until I swallow
Choke this infant here before me
What is this but my reflection?
Who am I to judge or strike you down?
But you're pushing, shoving me
Pushing, shoving me
Pushing, shoving me
Pushing, shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Ya still love me, still love me
But you didn't need pushit on me
Still love me, still love me
But you didn't need pushit on me
Rest your trigger on my finger
Bang my head upon the fault line
You better take care not to make me enter
'Cause if I do we both may disappear
But you're pushing, shoving me
Pushing, shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Ya still love me, still love me
But you didn't need pushit on me
You're pushing and shoving me
Pushing and shoving me
Slipping back into the gap again
I'm alive when you're touching me
Alive when you're shoving me down
But I'd trade it all
For just a little
Piece of mind
Pushit on me
Pushit on me
Pushit on me
Pushit on me
You're pushing
And shoving
I'm scrambling
Keep my feet flat on the ground
I am somewhere I don't wanna be
Push me somewhere I don't wanna be
Put me somewhere I don't wanna be
Seeing someplace I don't wanna see
Never wanna see that place again
I saw the gap again today
While you were begging me to stay
Managed to push myself away
And you as well my dear
If when I say I might fade like a sigh if I stay
You minimize my movement anyway
I must persuade you another way
Pushing and shoving
Pushing and shoving
Pushing me
There's no love in fear
Staring down the hole again
Hands are on my back again
Survival is my only friend
Terrified of what may come
Remember I'll always love you
As I claw your fucking throat away
It will end no other way
It will end no other way
