Lyrics

I see a sad little sinner in the mirror The devil works hard, like my liver I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die A fist full of pills, you're a nobody Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Bang-bang, that's depression at the door again You know he'll beat the door down 'til you let him in the room Since you are already acquainted, you skip the foreplay He grips you at the neck as you prepare to be screwed You try to muster a flare to tell somebody you're sinking But anxiety is an index finger pressed to your lips A whiskey bottle it whispers Since you're already bitter A cocktail fit for a quitter Come here and give me a kiss I see a sad little sinner in the mirror The devil works hard, like my liver I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die A fist full of pills and rivers in my eyes I got nothing left to lose, dear God in the sky Hear my cry, hear my cry When it's too dark to see Let there be light, let there be light (let there be) Let there be light Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yes, I edit my pictures to make my waist look slimmer And make my arse look bigger so that I'm someone you aspire to Let me in your algorithm, please, I know I'll only be important If I'm someone you would like, follow, share or subscribe to If you're thirsty like me, mix some pity with some self-hate Stir it up then add 12 ounces of rosé That's how I make the glass half-empty and drink it down Beneath the curse words and insecurities here lies a sorry little soul And she doesn't even know what to pray for Still just a heartbroke bitch But I traded the back of the nightclub I did for the bathroom floor I wish I could call my ex He would know just what to say (he don't say nothing at all now) It brings a tear to my eye The only thing I rely on him to do is stay declining my calls now I see a sad little sinner in the mirror The devil works hard, like my liver I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die A fist full of pills and rivers in my eyes I got nothing left to lose, dear God in the sky Hear my cry, hear my cry When it's too dark to see Let there be light, let there be light Let there be light Little girls that have no self-esteem A little boy without a father tries to find him in the streets A girl I used to walk to school with took her life Now rest in peace (rest in peace) Fake democracy, killing overseas Killing ourselves, suicide Government lies, discrimination Hating ourselves Why hope? Why keep going? Why try? (Why?) Genesis one, verse three, I'll dry my eyes The only thing which darkness cannot coexist is the light I see a sad little sinner in the mirror The devil works hard, like my liver I don't wanna be alive, but I don't wanna die A fist full of pills, and rivers in my eyes I got nothing left to lose, dear God in the sky Hear my cry, would you hear my cry? When it's too dark to see Let there be light, let there be light (let there be) Let there be light
