Lyrics

This family is as good as dead

This family is facing imminent destruction or ruin.

And your exactly where we want you

The person addressed is in a position that aligns with the speaker's desires.

Ignore the blades in your bed

Disregard the potential dangers or threats present in your immediate surroundings.

They only cut you where you want to

The harm inflicted upon you is self-inflicted, only affecting where you allow it.


Your empty laugh

Your laughter lacks genuine emotion or meaning.

An epitaph

A phrase commemorating a deceased person, suggesting a symbolic death or loss.

An image capturing a moment, possibly representing a memory or snapshot of the past.

A parasite

A person who exploits and feeds off others without giving anything in return.


We sit and tables and don't speak

Silence dominates the interactions at the table, emphasizing strained relationships.

In front of meals we never fucking eat

Despite being physically present, meals are skipped, symbolizing emotional starvation.

Bloated from swallowing words

Feeling inflated or bloated from unspoken words, indicating communication issues.

And push the leftovers inside the seat

Attempting to hide unresolved issues by pushing them aside, metaphorically represented by leftovers.


When did i have to start begging

The speaker questions when they started pleading for even a small expression of emotion.

For a single scrap of sentiment

Suggesting a desire for emotional responsiveness without the need for constant requests.

Let's automate the embedding

Advocating for the mechanization of emotional connections until it becomes a hindrance.

Til it becomes an impediment

Continuing the theme of automated emotional connections becoming problematic.


When did i have to start begging

Reiterating the theme of pleading, questioning the need to seek reciprocation for devotion.

To return my devotion

Questioning the loyalty of stabbing someone in the back when there are many alternatives.

Why would i stab you in the back

The speaker questions the necessity of betrayal when there are other options available.

When you've got so many faces to choose from

Alluding to the two-faced nature of individuals and the difficulty in trusting them.


Your empty laugh

Reiteration of laughter devoid of genuine emotion or significance.

An epitaph that's written on

An epitaph, possibly hinting at a symbolic death or loss associated with the laughter.

A photograph

Reiteration of a photograph representing a moment frozen in time.

A parasite born backwards on

Emphasizing the parasitic nature of certain individuals, born in reverse order.

The second Sunday

Referring to a specific timeframe, possibly highlighting a significant event or memory.

And then refused to die again

A paradoxical situation of being born backward and refusing to undergo a second death.

Maybe one day

Expressing hope or anticipation for a future change or resolution.

I'll force you back down the drain

A metaphorical desire to overcome challenges and push negative influences away.
