about

This is the easiest, most boring song in this whole project. Sets the foundation for the Quadrant’s themes: hyperbolic masculinity, denying my pain, etc. I remember singing this in quite a few ways only to backtrack, returning to that grungy marble-mouthed delivery.

lyrics

Honestly, I don’t know what it is about people
Can’t relate most days in a free fall when
Being equal is harder than it looks
Narrating the story but
Who the fuck wrote this book?

I’m gonna need more
Drugs if I keep living
I’m gonna need to
Pick up my slack
I’m gonna need more
Love if I keep giving out
Gonna need my stupid body back

Oh, suck it up!
Write it down and forget it
I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetics
Suck it up!
Ride it out like I’ve read it
I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetic

Oh, I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetic
Yeah, I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetic

Honestly, I don’t know what it is about myself
Carved an epitaph then a toast to my health
In a suicide note from a murderous plan
All so insignificant but isn’t life just grand?

I’m gonna need more
Drugs if I keep living
I’m gonna need to
Pick off your slacks
I’m gonna need more
Love if I keep giving out
Gonna need your stupid body back

Oh, suck it up!
Write it down and forget it
I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetic
Suck it up!
Ride it out like I’ve read it
I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetic

Sometimes I forget to tell myself
I’ve done nothing to justify this cruelty, yeah
Times I get to tell myself I’ve done
Everything to die more brutally

Oh, suck it up!
Write it down and forget it
I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetic
Suck it up!
Ride it out like I’ve read it
I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetic

I’m gonna need more
Drugs if I keep living
I’m gonna need to try to not crack
I’m gonna need more
Love if I keep giving
I’m gonna need that knife in my back

(Oh, suck it up!
Write it down and forget it
I’ll pop a potluck of anaesthetics
Suck it up!
Ride it out like I’ve read it
I’ll pop a potluck and just drop dead)
