I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m switched
Beyond my center
Of what is right and what is tethered
To go down, to see without any doubt
So lacerate the body and then the brain
The latter won’t bother to explain
Why it would forget nevermore
‘Cause every time I reach the bottom
Someone passes me a shovel
Orders me to dig until I bleed
From my I-eyes
And I’m switched off, nothing can turn me on
I’d kill myself, or you do it, just drive this pain away
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
I’m so soft
I’m so soft
I’m so
Soft is the feeling you took from me
And soft is the air when I try to breathe
I’d kill myself to forget your face
I’d kill myself to forget this pain
Explain, isolate every day by day
And keep convincing me ‘twas not insane
I’ve lied to myself more than good Saint Joseph
I really don’t believe it was worth the commotion
Emotionless, stoic, and pale I became
But there’s a page that I cannot erase
It blinds me, fucking blinds me
Connects and finds me
Like stitches it binds us
Hurts my eyes, it hurts my disguise
It hurts when I say that I realize
That I’m
Switched
Off
I’m switched off
I’m switched off
Lie, switched off
Lie
