about

A track about the struggles of my mental health illness being OCD and how I used alcohol as a coping mechanism.

lyrics

I’m lonely I need you,
To hold me tight see through,
My phony life I drew,
I only cry inside I’m to,

Ashamed of the pain from the mind games, yeah,
I move I play, yet there’s no getting away,
I lose every frame,
Snookered.
The shames, a bruise to my brain.
Everything is black,
Untamed attacks, migraine relapse, insane, collapsed.
He hits like Ronnie with cueballs,
Breaking a few jaws, snap snap blue chalk.
Friction between us, forming an addiction,
I dart to you, as I fall to my prescription,
I try to swerve him I do a 180,
I’m trapped I turn in, he shoots he hates me,
He’s like Van Gerwen, impeccable aim,
Bullseye determined to level up pain,
A technical strain, I’m mentally tamed.
I’ve had enough I cannot tell anybody but you,
You’re my love corkscrew.

I’m lonely I need you,
To hold me tight see through,
My phony life I drew,
I only cry inside I’m to,

If I tell my peers, they will think I’m weird,
A clear construct of a monster!
So I just bottle it up, keep on refilling my favourite cup, problem.
Mathematical equations in my mind,
Unpredictable persuasions that he finds,
Unbreakable invasions, dangerous
Thoughts leave awful abrasions.
Forceful irrational actions, hate them absorbing my time
He’s an alien, core extraction
Of the good thoughts that I long for,
Anchor slipping from my mind my soul,
He’s gripping I’m losing entire control,
Faster than a concord, things I wanna conquer
Take me far longer, he swings at me harder,
Than Happy Gilmore, whacking some golf balls.
He is the monster, thrashing my conscience,
I am engulfed in his tiresome problems.
Call fore! As he drives me bonkers!
I’m dizzy heads fizzy, illogical meanings hang around with me,
Psychological demons so hissy make me worry.
You give a not care in the world attitude,
You’re the fuel that fights this feud, unlock corkscrew.

I’m lonely I need you,
To hold me tight see through,
My phony life I drew,
I only cry inside I’m to,

I was doing so well, no more second guessing,
I fell in a well, hit the floor a regression,
I wish I’d rise up, I lack the aggression,
Intangible thoughts they attach, my obsessions.
I know it’s selectable, whether I let them go,
Or keep collectible, store in my head is full,
He’s uncontrollable, hatched irreparable,
we are inseparable, trapped no one there to call.
I’m forever running on egg shells,
I turn to you when my head swells,
He keeps on ringing like lead bells,
I’m going mad poison the red cells.
Give me a drink, neck everything,
I really don’t even like care what he thinks!
I’m snapping the link, fight me I’m King,
In this tug of war that we’re in.
Nobody will die if I do not comply,
All he does is lie imply that I’m a terrible guy,
Victimised when he try try’s doing me over this ain’t American Pie,
But I’m mixing my drink I’m sipping whiskey and wine,
Thinking bout my fake life will it be the day I die?
I dunno,
He’s a nightmare though,
scarecrow,
Craving the wheel of my mind ain’t fair no,
Just cause he’s got no brains in there no,
Doesn’t mean we can share yo, he’s a rare soul,
Thinks he’s the Pharoh,
Well I’m like Moses,
No slave I prepare flow,
Make waves don headphones,
Used to be drowned by the sound of his voices, noises,
Now he’s gonna drown in the sound of my music,
I win.
Any pain is relief to the torture he brings,
Who is he? OCD now I binge,
You’re my hinge,
I’m numb when I’m drunk can’t feel anything.
