Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I know I'm dead
You should know that I'm dead
Desolate in my head
All the tears that I've shed
Crying till my eyes red
Look at what you've done to me
All this liquor numbing me
I don't really wanna breathe
I don't want to breathe
You're haunting me
Quit taunting me
Just stop it please
You broke my heart
I know I'm hard
To deal with but
I never thought
You would be my downfall
Sorrow, I just swallowed a mouthful
Wait, maybe that was just the alcohol
How long till I finally pass out cold? Yeah
Drink till it goes black
I'm dead I just thought that you should know that
Spill my guts, babe I'll no longer hold back
Cause you mentally done put me in a toe tag
You should know that I'm dead
Desolate in my head
All the tears that I've shed
Crying till my eyes red
Look at what you've done to me
All this liquor numbing me
I've become so fuckin' weak
I don't really wanna breathe
Cut me awfully deep
Heart's frostbitten
I'm on my knees
Let's not give in
I broke your heart
I won't restart
Heart won't let me
I can't move on
Now I can't walk straight
Crossfading till my brain will no cooperate, yeah
Think I finally lost faith
Drinking liquor to the point where it is not safe, damn
Drink till I pass out
I could probably quit but I ain't going that route, no
Carry all these bags round
Too much baggage, think I'm probably gon relapse now, yeah
I don't know what's gotten into me
But I know I'm dead
You should know that I'm dead
Desolate in my head
All the tears that I've shed
Crying till my eyes red
Look at what you've done to me
All this liquor numbing me
I've become so fuckin' weak
I don't really wanna breathe
