Skar - I Want to Be Detached lyrics

rate me

I no longer have any use for what you've got to offer me

I always was subjected to so many unwanted sympathies

And now you're staring at me with shock and horror in your face

As I throw aside the progress I've been making for release

You seemed to think that antipsychotics were the solution

To solving all these schizophrenic paranoias that control

Control every waking moment and thought of my goddamn life

And threaten to tear me down every time I ignore their presence

The voices

The voices

The voices inside of me are directing me

The voices inside of me guide me to destiny

The voices

The voices

The voices inside of me are consuming me

The voices inside of me get me one step closer to sanity

I need you

I need a fucking reason

As if there was one

It wasn't ever offered to me

All I got were capsules

And cylindrical orange hells

That zombified my emotions

Sewed me to the furniture

Deafened my perceptions

Blunted my intellect

And you said it was a cure

Tried to sell me detachment

Addiction as a remedy

I don't want you

Fucking with me anymore

Sometimes people wonder why those suffering from mental problems

Often have the tendency to lash out in a violent act of demonstration

Picture yourself walking down the street and suddenly

A bewildered psycho lunges at you and blows your fucking brains out

The society and structure of it makes some people crazy

And others just can't handle this horrific fucking world we're in

Can you blame them

Our world's solution is to destroy what holds theirs together

I want to disappear

I want to go away

I want to be detached

I want to be erased

This is how it is and I love it

This is how it is and I want it this way

This is how it is and I embrace it

This is how it is and I refuse to be saved

Sometimes I swear it feels like my mouth has been welded shut

It feels like I'm suffocating even if I'm obviously breathing fine

These hands start grabbing and some otherworldly force takes over

It feels like I have no mouth and I must scream my way free

Scream my way free

Scream my way free

You seem to think

You're gonna cure me

You never will

You don't know

How it feels to lose

Grip on the wheel

Steering you towards

A brick fucking wall

That's how it feels

When your mind dies

And control's lost

When you reach the brink

Scared

Alarmed

Destroyed

Completely fucked

You won't save me with expensive therapy

You won't save me with padded holidays

You won't save me with benzodiazepines

You won't save me from something I don't want to be saved from
