Track 2 off my new EP "Quiet Time". Download the full EP here: https://nowitsart.bandcamp.com/album/quiet-time

This is a demo that was originally intended for an EP I never finished because I can't record any actual screaming at the moment, and that EP requires a lot of screaming. I decided to upload this because it's decent and why not.

Full track commentary available on bandcamp.

LYRICS

When I think of days gone by
And how I just don't want to die
I sometimes feel the need to do
But end up just not wanting to

Bring myself to do the things
That I need to keep on being
Able to afford the right
To work on my stuff all the night

'Cause I just can't seem to
Get my head straightened out
And I just want to get better
But I don't wanna try.

And when I've noticed days have gone
I tell myself that things are fine
Even though I know they're not
But self-assurance is all I've got

I just wish that I could better me,
Get up, do things so I could be
Able to afford the chance
To have a better circumstance

To have a better shot at life,
One not involving wrist to knife-
But I never would do that
'Cause things have not gotten that bad.

I tell myself that all day long,
I've tried to stop tugging my schlong.
Things will be bright if you say they'll be
And I take the time to better me

But I just can't seem to
Get my head straightened out
And I just want to get better
But I don't wanna try.

But I can't give up, I've gotta try.
