about

This one is so real to me because i was really depressed when i wrote it, and i would get the most catharsis just being out there on a street corner screaming my lungs out to a world that wasn't listening. When i first started busking i didn't make any money and i didn't care to, i was expressing myself and making art and at the time i needed an outlet more than i needed a couple bucks and cigarette. I would like to dedicate this song to anyone struggling with suicidal ideation and to street performers everywhere. For what is worth my heart is with you.
~Darkness

lyrics

Verse 1:
Like waiving your penis at oncoming traffic, like an std you got from a dog, or the time that you smoked catnip. Like the time you took your neighbors psych meds to see what they would do, you had impure thoughts about a hot pocket, burned your dick and tried to sue.

Bridge:
Sometimes it feels like im alone in this whole mother fucking universe and thats ok. Sometimes i wanna scream till the mother fucking rats in the walls can feel my pain and thats ok. Sometimes it feels like the theres no point cause i've already died and thats ok. Sometimes it feels like i just wanna feed the hole inside and thats ok.

Chorus:
Pull your puppet strings just a little harder now, like nobody out there fucking cares, Pull your puppet strings just a little harder now and kick away that ugly swivel chair. Pull your puppet strings just a little harder now, you know what it is that you've gotta do. Pull your puppet strings just a little harder now and give up on the world that gave up on you. and choke.

Verse 2:
Like smothering yourself with honey and walking naked into the woods, you're not quite sure what you're expecting but you are pretty sure that it won't be good. Like telling kids that there is no santa so you can watch them cry, you're a miserable piece of shit my friend, why don't you suck your own dick and die.
