be nothing! - skippocalyptic lyrics
it’s not about the pain, and i don’t think you’ll understand
but it started at the cuticle, the thumb of my right hand
an obvious piece of real estate, the clear place to begin
the seam where it is easiest to slip a nail beneath the skin
it didn’t even hurt, when i first peeled the flesh away
and i further my unwrapping, just a little bit each day!
and by now i’m far enough, that it’s very plain to see
that in that newly skinless sp*ce, there is nothing underneath!
if anywhеre the soul residеs, it must be in the skin
or maybe in the spinal cord, where the shivers first begin
the wavelength runs nails down your back, to trace the music in
like the needle drags along a record as it spins
of course i’ve had to hide it, for others peace of mind
who’ve not realized unbecoming is a feeling near sublime
and i’m a consummate performer, so i know you’ll never guess
the spots i’ve filled in with foundation, where i no longer exist
if anywhere the soul resides, it can’t be in the skin
for it’s eternally sloughing off, and growin in again
but everytime, i look inside, i find nothing within
identity is illusory and always paper thin
don’t take me for a dualist, trying to free my weary soul
i simply know the self’s a fractured farce, approximation of a whole
and come the day my ego is fully derealized
the music will play on but i’ll unmemorize my lines
if the self is just a costume, then what reason’s there to stay?
i think i’ll rip it off and throw the whole d*mn thing away!
all my life’s been a performance, love and loss are just a laugh
and aren’t we all tired of these silly paper masks?
my aesthetic was an anaesthetic
my old emotions, so pathetic
all the motions of my life were such a bore
i’ll leave fresh bloodstains on the carpet
and set fire to my apartment
where i’ve abandoned my old skin suit on the floor
be nothing anymore
be nothing anymore
be nothing anymore
be nothing anymore…
