Don't Damage Yourself Songtext
von Verb T

Slow down before you damage yourself
Slow down before you damage yourself

Feels like I can′t wake up, still I've gotta fight
Living out scenes from my nightmares, horror-like
Quarantine, hobbled ′cause I've gotten weak
Stabbing at my veins trying to find what is wrong with me
Heart torn as I'm sitting in isolation
Fight is fading, energy dulled by the medication
Looking for inspiration, an impatient patient
Losing my lust for picture painting

When the facts are so ugly, why frame it?
I tried taming
But undeniable pain in the physical got me


Losing my conscience as I sit in the lobby
Distant and groggy
IV after IV blurred my thinking
A first, then a second, then a third opinion
But how am I supposed to take it in
When I can barely say to him
I feel shit, trying to regain my faith again
I start to wake up, life returns to me
Friends, loved ones, and their kind words to me

It′s like I dodged a bullet and rehabilitated
Now I′ve gotta pay attention, no more living vacant
Or in a way that is harmful
Gotta lead by example
Activate the positive energy and embrace love
No more hate struck
Channel aggression and keep my face up

Slow down before you damage yourself
Why you love all the things that are bad for your health?
Gotta take care and manage it well
You ain't indestructible with your arrogant self
Slow down before you damage yourself
Why you love all the things that are bad for your health?
You gotta take care and manage it well
You ain′t indestructible with your arrogant self
With your arrogant self (Ain't indestructible)


You are not Superman
You cannot stop a speeding bullet
You′re gonna damage yourself
Take care of your health
