Pacifier
Sufferer Lyrics

All the lines on the table are squirming like insects

And let them decide for us

You should try harming yourself

Just to feel some control

Tell your friends to fuck off cause you're trying to cope

Take what you get

All the talking

All the effort

Nothing worked

Nothing's better
Despite seeking various resources for dealing with the problem, the artist sees no visible improvement

All the pills

All the liquor

Meant to close my wounds tore them open and left me for dead

It's hard to swallow and it never ends

Full up on medicine but always on empty

We've exhausted our options

Took advice that was offered

Meditated, medicated, chemically altered our heads

We're sedated at best

Why try to deal with emotion

When you can remove it and trade it for rest

It always wins

I've given up but it's relentlessly kicking
