Depression
Kirfex Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I told myself I would never be like you
Hypocritical, with no fucking shame
So here me out, I want nothing to do with you
Tell me why you would say such things to them
Without knowing who to blame
The lives we shared, has finally been betrayed
You were to me what everybody said you were
I tell myself that there is no cure for all the pain you put me through
They know that were toxic
Promise me you'll stay alive
No
I need you in my life, even through were toxic
We're playing hide and seek with the god in the afterlife
I hope they treat you well
The life we shared, has finally been betrayed
You were to me what everybody said you were
Paralyzed as your treading water




You fade to black as your skins gets cold
Please go back
