Braindead
Elohim Lyrics

She don't care about the things that make her have to think
She prefers to avoid anything that requires her to use her brain and instead chooses to numb her thoughts with drugs or alcohol.

So she'll take another pill or have another drink
She resorts to taking more drugs or drinking more alcohol to avoid thinking about her problems.

He don't wanna feel the pain of feeling not enough
He tries to avoid the hurt of feeling inadequate by isolating himself and consuming alcohol until he's intoxicated.

So he hides up in his room and drinks until he's drunk
He spends time in seclusion and drinking until he's unconscious to escape the pain of inadequacy.

And all I know is I know what I don't know
The artist is aware there are many things they are uncertain about in life.

And what I don't know could fill up a whole bible

And now the fog's creepin' in from down low
The singer senses confusion or haziness descending upon them.

But at least I know I'm not alone
Despite their struggles, the artist finds solace in the knowledge that others also experience similar pain and confusion.

In this life that's full of lies
