lyrics

The blood doesn't come at first
Just the buzz and the hurt

The razor's not red
Didn't even get wet from the sweat

It just sort of appears
In a couple little tears

Dribbling towards my feet
Move away from the bed so it won't stain the sheets

Cut on my leg is gaping
Blood pouring out, thick red and sticky

The world is spinning round
Lean against the wall so I don't fall down

The cut twists and faces me
Contorts into a smile and starts to breathe

It grows some teeth
Opens its mouth and begins to speak

"Hey buddy let's get started on a party
I'm feeling a little bit lonely
Gotta get some balance since this side's a bit too heavy
Sucking up to invented OCD
Yeah you've maybe gone a bit too deep
But your family won't notice a thing
Just disguise it as misanthropy
Then we'll be free

It's not attention seeking if you don't let yourself be seen
It's not attention seeking if you lie about where you've been
It's not attention seeking if you are doing it in your dreams
It's not attention seeking if the ends justify the means"

DEMOS for the band 7 Hour Darkness Invasion. Be warned, there's a lot of out of tune singing and out of time playing. These are essentially drafts of what I want the albums to actually be.

C/W: lots of stuff about blood/suicide/alcohol/trans issues ... more
