Lyrics
I'm a worm, slithering out your ear
I feel insignificant and low, like a worm, invading your thoughts.
I'm rotten, the filth of the earth
I am corrupt and embody the worst aspects of existence.
Crushed by the pain and dread
Overwhelmed by suffering and fear.
And it feels like Sludge
The emotional weight is thick and sluggish like sludge.
Defeated and down
Beaten and demoralized.
Hanging on by a thread
Hanging onto life by a fragile connection.
Tears turn to tar
Tears become thick and heavy like tar.
And no one's around
A sense of isolation, with no one to provide support.
Shards of glass couldn't penetrate
My defenses are impenetrable, but I am still a mess.
The goo and muck of myself
My self-image is a messy, gooey substance.
Peeling off the scum
Stripping away the undesirable layers of myself.
All that's left is sludge
All that remains is the emotional sludge.
I'm a shell of myself
I've lost my true self, a mere shell of who I used to be.
A carcass, I waste away
I'm decaying, wasting away like a carcass.
Decomposed
My essence is breaking down and decomposing.
Underground I stay
I'm hidden away, avoiding the world's gaze.
Water the soil, watch me grow
Nurture me, but the outcome is my destruction.
Crush me, sent back below
Crushed and pushed back into despair.
Couldn't handle the thorns
I couldn't endure the pain symbolized by the thorns.
On the rose that you disposed
You discarded the beauty and caused me suffering.
Water the soil, watch me grow
Nurture me, but the outcome is my destruction.
Crush me, sent back below
Crushed and pushed back into despair.
Couldn't handle the thorns
I couldn't endure the pain symbolized by the thorns.
On the rose that you disposed
You discarded the beauty and caused me suffering.
Shards of glass couldn't penetrate
My defenses are impenetrable, but I am still a mess.
The goo and muck of myself
My self-image is a messy, gooey substance.
Peeling off the scum
Stripping away the undesirable layers of myself.
All that's left is sludge
All that remains is the emotional sludge.
Sludge in my mind
The emotional burden is overwhelming my thoughts.
Sludge in my lungs
The heaviness of despair is affecting my breathing.
Sludge in my heart
Emotional weight is burdening my heart.
Claw my skin, falling apart
My external appearance reflects internal struggles.
Sludge in my brain
Heavy emotional burden on my cognitive processes.
Sludge in my veins
The emotional weight is coursing through my veins.
Sludge never wanes
The emotional burden remains constant.
Sludge in my mind
The emotional burden is overwhelming my thoughts.
Sludge in my lungs
The heaviness of despair is affecting my breathing.
Sludge in my heart
Emotional weight is burdening my heart.
Claw my skin, falling apart
My external appearance reflects internal struggles.
Sludge in my brain
Heavy emotional burden on my cognitive processes.
Sludge in my veins
The emotional weight is coursing through my veins.
Sludge never wanes
The emotional burden remains constant.
Shards of glass couldn't penetrate
My defenses are impenetrable, but I am still a mess.
The goo and muck of myself
My self-image is a messy, gooey substance.
Peeling off the scum
Stripping away the undesirable layers of myself.
All that's left is sludge
All that remains is the emotional sludge.
