Going in the wrong way
I think I wanna be here today
Hope it goes my way
Cause I don't know how I'd stay
Hey there, depression
How's it going
I didn't expect you to show up in my life so slowly
I thought you'd come about after a quick round of greyhounds
Instead you're showing up after I rewound
A tape that I found, labelled my childhood playground
It was about the same time that I discovered my sound
I think I know what I'm about, but I still can't help
But feel I should be six feet underground
You can read between these words, try and understand
The things that I heard and seen, the things that I burned
And the things that I helped birth
It'll make your stomach turn
It'll make you question everything about this goddamn earth
Why is it we allow little kids to be around
Pain and blood and sex and drugs
Somehow we gotta stop it now
Before it cuts us down
Can you feel it coming out
This is why depression is loud
Going in the wrong way
I think I wanna be here today
Hope it goes my way
Cause I don't know how I'd stay
It's a bit awkward in the orchid
Like an orchestra with no organs
Like I'm walking through the morgue
With dead bodies laid on the floor
Again this time I recognise all their faces
It's torturous to hang out in all of these places
It reminds me everyday that I'm one breath away from being next to these corpses
I'm trying to break through the forces
That are stopping me from moving forward
Can you see what my cause is
Don't patronise me and hold their applauses
My brain's mixing chemicals
Deploying air missiles
Blowing them up in my skull and it tickles
Only because my head is drowning in pharmaceuticals
It's like I'm one of those characters in one of them musicals
Singing about love and green witches
I'm trying to get above and burn bridges
Instead of festering in blood and getting mad at politicians
Now my mind is getting bugged
This is why it always itches
This is why I got that bug called depression
Going in the wrong way
I think I wanna be here today
Hope it goes my way
Cause I don't know how I'd stay
Going in the wrong way
I think I wanna be here today
Hope it goes my way
Cause I don't know how I'd stay
Going in the wrong way
I think I wanna be here today
Hope it goes my way
Cause I don't know how I'd stay
