Analysis of I wish I was fucking dead
I wish I was fucking dead
said the sad cunt to his self
whilst blowing several trumpets
and rather being someone else
some other place, some other time
all expectations, get in line
what's this, what's that, what have they said
I wish I was fucking dead
what will they think, what will they say
it'll be OK but not today
relentless arguments in my head
I wish I was fucking dead
divorced from life married to strife
if hell were a person I'd take a wife
at least I'd be "normal" at least I'd be fed
I wish I was fucking dead
something completely fucking rotten
lost, abandoned but not forgotten
has gone and gotten in my head
I wish I was fucking dead
and amidst all this confusion
come inadequate delusions
grandeur, pander to it, meds?
I wish I was fucking dead
act like you're a proper person
like your problems cannot worsen
fuck it all and just lie in bed
I wish I was fucking dead
make excuses, self abuse it
have your doubts but then accuse it
when all is done, when all is said
I wish I was fucking dead
