Release Me

(álbum: Shadows And Shinings - 2021)

Move this shit out of the way
Welcome to the fucking terrordome

Sweet death release me so I can cease to be in this misery
My whole life history's a mystery
Of how I remain to be the same my whole life
Pain to feel pleasure again and my aim is
I'm feeling the rain on my parade, the charade is
Fizzing me out like a can of lemonade
And my whole life's played, time out and again
I feel the pressure of fame and give the game away
And I'ma stray from the path that's paved
From the cradle to the grave like Kylie Minogue and Nick Cave
I'ma stave off death till my very last breath
Will accept the best and nothing less, regress
Into a mess, depressed, the test, I confess
And digress, you might find these lyrics hard to digest
In my chest, take a step back for an eye test
I except the contest, the conquest, the wrong step
Clear the club with a bomb threat
Checking the mic (One, two, three) Is this thing on yet?

You can feel it in your spirit
Ain't no walls no more, don't fight it
Don't fight it

Sweet death release me, once it teased to appease me
To free me from my broken ruins, felt uneasy
Welcoming tomb, now keen to see it out peacefully
The sequel breeding deep within my womb is healing me
Think I can feel it, my QI spirit climbing back
Just wanna shield it, cut it slack and reveal it
Finally, been hiding quite some time you see
Writhing in self-hate in a binder file of "Why'd you leave?"
More like "Why'd you never come?" Tend to run dementia struck
Letters hung amongst two bent and severed lungs
In my redemption, tables spun
I heard it sung "Change your mind, engage your tongue"

"So I'm back again, like I never left"

Sweet death release me
My dark thoughts running around up on repeat
Won't fast forward just to find the meaning of my life
A dark horse like a steed creature of the night
Trying to make the most of my time like a Rolex
Never catch me kissing death and smoking rollies
Stay ahead of all these little freaks like Gomez
'Cause see I treasure all the freaks like I'm the Goonies
Excuse me, still got a few wires loosely dangling by threads
Just like Brandon Lee at least they'll remember me for damaging a set
Yo, when it's my time to jet
I'm esoteric, no cemetery for me to rest, nah
See, I ain't scared of death, no
I'm scared of living an unfulfilled life full of regrets though
You smoke Billy's in Beverly Hills, Jethro
I trek through Nepal even when I'm on death's door

And you can feel it in your spirit
Ain't no walls no more, don't fight it
Don't fight it

Sweet death release me 'cause every move forward's
Like a step in feces or really confusing
Like sex with he shes, I'm screwed either way
In this test of species, I went from me being
Lost and pathless in a world so bogged in darkness
Now I'm like a moth on target
Snake oil everywhere in the imposter market
But it's smelling like dogs on carpet, uh
So I'm holding the keys
Question all the things I was told to believe
I chew my food for thought instead of swallowing memes
I'm not trying to be woke, I'm just following dreams
Everyone's got dark demons
And past treasons, unfair card dealings
They say the world is full of glass ceilings
I'm like bricks in the hands of the done dealing

Ha, alright
Check it, yeah
It's like this
Perth city is the spot where the Syllabolix kick it

"And if I die tonight, what a sweet death"
"So I'm back again, like I never left"
"Burn my name into the sands of time"
"My fingers on the pulse, breathing new life"
"And if I die tonight, what a sweet death"
"So I'm back again, like I never left"
"Raising a glass to a past not known, gone"
"This ain't no [?] this my breath in a song"
