ABOUT

"Wristcutter" is a song inspired by the genres Electronicore and Crunkcore, taking the screams and aggression from Metalcore and combining it with Electropop synth.

The song explores the mind of someone who feels unloved and driven to cut themselves in order to overcome the numbness of their life. The song itself does not encouraging wristcutting, but instead seeks to let those struggling know they are not along, and instead shines light on the subject that is often avoided.

LYRICS

Rock that beat like an old school jam
Rock that beat like you want it now
Rock that beat like the songs you like
The songs when they used to scream like...

Now this is what it's like
When you can't breathe at all
Now this is what it's like
When I can't believe it all
Of this retention
Did I forget to mention
All the days I hate myself
Tell me what it is you want
Tell me what it is I need
I need somebody to love me
But how can I love someone
If I don't know anyone
I might as well just hate myself

No one loves me this I know
For my notebook tells me so
If I die before I wake
I told you so / no mistake
I can't take anymore of this shit
You'll never love me

I'm a wristcutter
So I might as well just slit my wrists
But if you insist "I'm lying"
I'm a wristcutter
So I might as well just slit my wrists
Death my final wish
Might as well just slit my, slit my wrists

Numbing to pain / letting it go
It's all just a game and I'm breaking it so
So sick of the cut / I am sick of the lies
Stop telling me how to live my life
I tried so hard to turn this round
I tried so hard / I'm breaking down

Suicidal.
Tendencies.
Oh my God
It's killing me
Look up to God but I'm pressing my luck
As if by magic I am turning to dust
Watch as I fucking disappear

I need to escape this hell
I need to redeem myself
Take these rusty nails / they scar me
Wristcutting is a lie

All the wristcutters
In the world / cover up your wrists
Though the pain persists
Keep trying
All the wristcutters
In the world / cover up your wrists
Drop that razor quick
Fight it cover up your, up your wrists
