Self Strangulation Songtext
von Exhausted

Well goddamn there are days
When it feels like time′s sliding down a razor
Feels like a standoff with dismay
And there are times
When it feels like life's falling out of favor
Feels like I′m circumventing dread

Persist
Out of the darkest dream
Wake to find relief from suffering
Death's kiss
You know that final breath will come
So stay, remain the lesser dead

May that blade it break against our wrist
May that rope it shred against our neck
And we will milk this thing until nothing's left
Reject the message


And there are nights
When it seems like I′m slipping off the cliff′s edge
Feels like a barter with my head
And there are months
When it seems like life's messing with the trigger
Feels like I′m running in the red

Persist
Out of the darkest dream
Wake to find relief from suffering
Death's kiss
You know that final breath will come
So stay, remain the lesser dead

May that blade it break against our wrist
May that rope it shred against our neck
And we will milk this thing until nothing′s left
Reject the message

What's left to lose
When you no longer choose
What′s left to gain
When you give into pain

Self strangulation
There's no joy without pain
