Scum

(Album: Wake Up & It's Over - 2023)

I feel I've reached the end before I've reached death
Pick up the pieces of me, you can have what's left
No matter how much you think you love him
You'll still flinch when his blood pool touches you

'Cause I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want
I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want
I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want
I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want

He draws his sample so fast, it feels medical
Chest compressions in the incident support vehicle
And I know, it's Stockholm that you're stuck on
How high's your pedestal?

But maybe, he'll be Jesus
Maybe, he'll be Jesus this time

Oh, I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want
I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want
I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want
I'm scum, I'm waste, I'm what you want

(I recall staring at the sea for the first time)

I recall staring at the sea for the first time
My eyes wandered, took the sights from the both sides
They longed to be free, but all I could see
Was horizon
That claustrophobic horizon
