Obliterate My Fate
Asphyxia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Couplet (x2) :
I will muzzle you with wires, I will make your limbs collapse
I will stay awake for you reading your children's tales
Prepare yourself because you'll struggle against pain
I would rather stop by now but you're driving me insane

Refrain (x2) :
I do not deserve to remain here anyway
I beg you, don't pretend to help me out
Just let me think alone about what I've done



Now I have to go away and live on my own

Don't tell me that you care, don't cry like the kid you were
Don't try to heal my wounds, don't think about me once
I finally found out who you are
I'm starting to realize you obliterated my fate

They urge the other person not to try and help or heal them, expressing a desire to be alone and process their actions and emotions.


Overall, the lyrics paint a disturbing picture of a deeply unhealthy and potentially dangerous relationship, with themes of power, control, and isolation.
