Matty Myatt - Self Help Wanted Ads Lyrics

Burn the effigy
Place the ashes in my hand
Make a wish, blow them away just to be picked up again
This time next year
I hope, I fear
Something different, something new,
Something just to keep me here

But i dont feel like dying today
I just wanted to escape
And when that breath came in every inch of my skin knew I knew the difference
I dont want to write this tragedy
I just want a little relief
And they say that little bit of numbness well it's better than something...
But i digress

I took a breath to hint a form of clarity
I'll sit and listen in solidarity
But i still feel the pills in the back of my throat
And my finger on the signature to publish a note
And your hand upon my cheek
As I woke up

I didn't want to hear it
I didnt want to admit it
Who were you to have not have known?
You found my finger prints scraped across the earth
I was buried deep beneath the soil choking on the dirt

It was just a test
Results were inconclusive but i think i did my best
In my head
But don't take my word for it
Anyways what i guess ive been trying to say is im sorry
When i digress
