Excess
Perturbator HEALTH Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One more night
For me
To bleed
Into the dawn
Breath the smoke in
Spend the money before you die
One more try
To be free
Alone
Into the darkness
Breath the smoke in
Empty the bottle before you die
Terrible visions in my sleep
I can see your face again
Terrible visions and I′m awake
I can't get away
Terrible visions as you speak
I can see you lying there dead
I didn′t do it
I didn't do it for love
What did I do it for?
Did I do it for?
One more trial
To scream
To plead
Into the void
This is the last kiss
Empty the vials before you die
One more child
To lead
Alone
Into the cold
Breath the smoke in
Spend the money before you die
Terrible visions in my sleep
I can see your face again
Terrible visions and I'm awake
I can′t get away
Terrible visions as you speak
I can see you lying there dead
I can see you lying there
I didn′t do it
I didn't do it for love
I didn′t do it
I didn't do it for us
Why did I do it?
What did I do it for?
Did I do it
Did I do it for
Excess

Excess
For excess

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Perturbator HEALTH's song Excess depict a story of a character who is dealing with the aftermath of their actions. The character is trying to come to terms with the consequences of their actions and is experiencing terrible visions in their sleep as they try to make sense of what they have done. The repetition of the phrase “I didn’t do it for love” suggests that the character has committed a crime or acted in a way that they regretted not because they loved someone but for a reason they cannot remember. The phrase “one more night to bleed into the dawn” suggests that the character is feeling the weight of their actions and is contemplating their own mortality. However, the character still tries to find a way out by spending money and emptying bottles to escape their thoughts, and the phrase “one more child to lead into the cold” suggests that the character is struggling to move on from their past.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of guilt, confusion, and an attempt to escape the consequences of one's actions. The repetition of phrases like "terrible visions," "I can see your face again," and "what did I do it for?" reinforce the character's internal turmoil and inability to come to terms with their past. The song's focus on excess and escape through drugs and money gives a sense of how the character has tried to cope with the weight of their actions.

CN: mention of self-harm, sui**

When Perturbator first posted this, it was less than a month after losing one of my best friends to sui****. I was the person who found her. The lyrics match up so closely to her struggles, my relationship with her, trying to do.... anything and everything to keep her here with me (including getting more professional help), and it fits eerily with the way she ultimately passed. Add HEALTH to those lyrics and ohhhh, I listened on repeat and cried for hours. The very first time I heard it, I had to stop after the first chorus bc it was too close to what happened. Once I could listen, though, I listened to it over and over for days. It eventually became very cathartic to process that loss through the music.

I'll do anything to see HEALTH again when they come to Toronto with Perturbator in a few months, and it will make my life so full if they play this (and it seems unlikely that they wouldn't). ❤️🖤

Еще одна ночь
Для меня,
Чтоб кровь пустить,
На рассвете..
Вдохни этот смог.
Перед кончиной деньги все изведи...
Ещё одну попытку,
Чтобы оковы сбросить,
Один
Прямо во тьму..
Вдохни этот смог,
Пред кончиной бутыль допей..
Мерзкое виденья по ночам,
Я снова вижу твой лик..
Снова виденье то, и я встаю,
Но уйти не могу..
Мерзкое видения, когда ты говоришь..
Вижу я бездыханную тебя,
Я не делал это..
Я не делал это не из любви..
Зачем сделал это я?
Для чего сделал это?..
Ещё одна пытка..
Кричи,
Моли,
В пустоту..
Последний поцелуй..
Перед кончиной опорожни эту пузырь..
Ещё одно дитя,
Проложит
Один,
В холода..

Вдохни этот смог.
Перед кончиной деньги все изведи...
Мерзкое виденья по ночам,
Я снова вижу твой лик..
Снова виденье то, и я встаю,
Но уйти не могу..
Мерзкое видения, когда ты говоришь..
Вижу я бездыханную тебя,
Я не делал это..
Я не делал это не из любви..
Я не делал это..
Я не делал это для нас..
Зачем сделал это я?
Для чего сделал это?..
Сделал это я,
Для чего-то сделал это,
ИЗЛИШКА
ИЗЛИШКА
ИЗЛИШКА
Для ИЗЛИШКА.

I LOVE HOW EVERY SONG HAS THE SAME BPM.......BUT EVERY ONE IS DIFFERENT, WITH ITS OWN INTENSITY.....

@ShikyoMitsukai

They have a great understanding of textures and harmonics that allows them to layer the song with different colors. Plus an obvious admiration of music from all genres that likely inspires them.

@meganveronica5155

You have to see them live.

@Nazgul593

@@meganveronica5155 when?

@rezzer666

Health is something else. Their songs touch the soul. So dark but so beautiful at the same time. Their music helps me understand the pain I've felt in life.
