Those Poor Bastards
I Cannot Escape the Darkness
There is a curse
Upon my every waking breath
And I cannot escape the darkness
It feels like every step
Is gonna be my last
And I cannot escape the darkness

Some have tried to lift me up
But I only dragged them down with me
For I cannot escape the darkness
The iris of my eye
Is cancerous and black
And I cannot escape the darkness

Tear out your golden hair
And stitch it to my back
For I cannot escape the darkness
Some have tried to lift me up
But I only dragged them down with me
For I cannot escape the darkness

It's time, my gal
To go and find another
I’ve dug my hole
Now just let me smother
Look at this worthless thing
That slithers on your floor
And I cannot escape the darkness
Just burn my eyelids shut
Then shove me out the door
For I cannot escape the darkness

Some have tried to lift me up
But I only dragged them down with me
For I cannot escape the darkness

It's time, my gal
To go and find another
I’ve dug my hole

Now just let me smother
