About This Track

The lyrics hover between swagger and exhaustion, with the speaker presenting themselves as “70% dead” while insisting on affection and asking not to be touched. The imagery mixes brightness and burn, as if a high-gloss facade is being strained by nights when feeling alive does not quite take hold.

"70% Dead" is a track by WARGASM, from the album Listen All You Motherfuckers, released 12th July 2024. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 9 articles about WARGASM.

Lyrics

70% Dead

[Verse 1: Sam Matlock, Milkie Way, Sam Matlock & Milkie Way]

We're so pretty, we're, we're so pretty

Oh, I know you love me

But, but, but please don't touch me

Sun’s so bright I'm burning in my bed

You know some nights I feel alive but I'm 70% dead

We're so pretty, we're, we're so pretty

Pretty tired, uninspired

Of living in a world on fire

It's getting heavy, oh, the air is getting heavy

Yeah, it's getting heavy, the air is getting heavy

Oh

[Pre-Chorus: Sam Matlock, Milkie Way, Corey Taylor, Milkie Way & Corey Taylor]

We're killing innocence

With stylish ignorance

You can barely hold it together but

Don't I look better now you know that we won't live forever?

(Oh) We're killing innocence

(Oh) With stylish ignorance

You can barely hold it together, baby

Don't you look better now I know that we won't live forever?

[Chorus: Sam Matlock, Milkie Way, Milkie Way & Corey Taylor]

We're so pretty, we're just so fucking pretty

Oh, I know you love me

But, but don't fucking test me

Take my body, turn it into something ugly

Take my money, turn it into something dirty

[Verse 2: Sam Matlock, Milkie Way, Sam Matlock & Milkie Way]

Sell my right to autonomy (Take my blood)

Take, take everything out

It makes you enough to get high but

Never gonna catch me buying time

'Cause I'm too caught up tryna keep myself alive

[Pre-Chorus: Milkie Way & Corey Taylor, Sam Matlock, Corey Taylor]

We're killing innocence

With stylish ignorance

You can barely hold it together but

Don't I look better now you know that we won't live forever?

[Chorus: Sam Matlock, Corey Taylor, Corey Taylor & Sam Matlock]

(Oh) We're killing innocence

(Oh) With stylish ignorance

You can barely hold it together, baby

Don't you look better now I know that we won't live forever

[Breakdown: Sam Matlock, Milkie Way, Corey Taylor, Milkie Way & Corey Taylor]

Oh

Oh

Oh

Oh

Yeah

([?])

Ah

[Bridge: Sam Matlock, Milkie Way, Corey Taylor, Milkie Way & Corey Taylor]

Fuck me, what went wrong?

I'm sick of sleeping on the barrel of a loaded gun

Fuck me, what went wrong?

I'm sick of slipping on the barrel of a loaded gun (Ow!)

Fuck me, what went wrong?

I'm sick of sleeping on the barrel of a loaded gun

Fuck me, what went wrong?

I'm sick of slipping on the barrel of a loaded gun

You know some nights I feel alive but I'm 70% dead

You know some nights I feel alive but I'm 70% dead

[Chorus: Milkie Way & Corey Taylor, Corey Taylor, Sam Matlock]

We're so pretty, we're so fucking pretty

Don't you look better now I know that we won't live forever?

We're so pretty, we're so fucking pretty

Don't you look better now I know that we won't live forever

We're so pretty, we're so fucking pretty

Don't I look better now you know that we won't live forever?

We're so pretty, we're so fucking pretty

Don't I look better now you know that we won't live forever?

Yeah
