lyrics

i am a rat my bed is like a sticky trap
i can't relax although it's not like im doing anything
anyway, anytime, every day is such a pain
i just stare at a screen and hate the shit i make
well in life i guess i'm just a masochist
get a thrill of taking things and making a mess of them

i can't stop punching myself in the face turning black and blue
sometimes it feels like this is what i was programmed to do
self destruction is the only language i can speak
put some makeup on to cover up the bruises on my cheeks

im crying in the bathroom
the mirror is laughing at me
my tights tore open
my face feels broken
my life feels broken

(chorus)
