Bother

[Verse 1]

Wish I was too dead to cry

My self-affliction fades

Stones to throw at my creator

Masochists to which I cater

[Chorus]

You don't need to bother

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

[Verse 2]

Wish I was too dead to care

If indeed, I cared at all

Never had a voice to protest

So, you fed me shit to digest

[Bridge]

I wish I had a reason

My flaws are open season

For this, I gave up trying

One good turn deserves my dying

[Chorus]

You don't need to bother

I don't need to be

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

[Verse 3]

Wish I'd died instead of lived

A zombie hides my face

Shell forgotten with its memories

Diaries left with cryptic entries

[Chorus]

And you don't need to bother

I don't need to be (I don't need to be)

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on

I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother

I don't need to be, yeah (I don't need to be)

I'll keep slipping farther

But once I hold on (Once I hold on)

I'll never live down my deceit
