Lyrics
Try to remain whole as we spiral out of control
Attempting to stay intact while losing control of the situation
The weight of the world takes its toll
The burden of the world has its consequences
There's gotta be a reason I'm still breathing
Seeking a purpose for being alive
I'm still here
Emphasizing existence despite challenges
Screaming "take me"
Expressing a desire to be taken away
I should just bite the bullet
Considering ending things abruptly
Taking aim at everything we love
Targeting what's cherished or valued
Take me
Reiterating the plea to be taken away
Oh, the thirst for power leaves us so devoured
Describing the consuming nature of ambition
Surviving myself
Struggling to endure one's own challenges
It's hard to make sense of this mess
Difficulty in making sense of a chaotic situation
We can't high-five death
Recognizing the impossibility of evading death
We know better than that
Understanding better but still taking risks
Still we pushed to the edge
Approaching the brink despite awareness
I'm struggling with the fact
Struggling with being alive in this context
That I'm still left
Feeling the weight of surviving amidst loss
But people have died for less
Recognizing the comparative value of life
Screaming "take me"
Expressing the longing to be taken away
I should just bite the bullet
Considering a sudden end
Taking aim at everything we love
Targeting what's cherished or valued
Take me
Reiterating the plea to be taken away
Oh, the thirst for power leaves us so devoured
Describing the consuming nature of ambition
Surviving myself
Struggling to endure one's own challenges
The writing's on the wall
Recognizing the evident conclusion or fate
Why not me, why not me?
Questioning why not be the one facing fate
The writing's on the wall
Repeating the questioning of fate
Why not me, why not me?
Asking again why not be the one facing fate
Screaming "take me"
Expressing the longing to be taken away
I should just bite the bullet
Considering a sudden end
Taking aim at everything we love
Targeting what's cherished or valued
Take me
Reiterating the plea to be taken away
Oh, the thirst for power leaves us so devoured
Describing the consuming nature of ambition
Surviving myself
Struggling to endure one's own challenges
The writing's on the wall
Recognizing the evident conclusion or fate
Why not me, why not me?
Questioning why not be the one facing fate
The writing's on the wall
Repeating the questioning of fate
Why not me, why not me?
Asking again why not be the one facing fate
