Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sick of living unwilling to die
I've been hated my whole fucking life
Beat down and broken as my world fell apart
My hands are empty, but I still have my heart
Lost in the dark, and I can't see the light
Believed the lie that life was black and white
Hate in your eyes in all that you see
You should've been a better friend to me
[Verse 2]
I won't submit in spite of your disease
I'll be the one that you wouldn't be
I'll turn on you and watch you bleed
I don't care what it is, but I know what I need
[Chorus]
Painkiller
Give me the painkiller
Painkiller
[Verse 3]
Take me to the place where I can feel nothing
Left you behind, I can't carry your weight
I'm not your failure or your guilt and shame
It's not dark yet, but I can feel it come
Feels like my life is already done
[Verse 4]
See what I am you hurt more than you helped
I don't need you, it's on myself
My heart's a wound I need to numb
I can see the light, the worst is yet to come
[Chorus]
Painkiller
Give me the painkiller
Painkiller
Take me to the place where I can feel nothing
[Bridge]
No hurt
No pain
Let me do my goddamn thing
[Verse 5]
In their lies, I found the truth
I pushed away the pain of youth
Where I'm from I would not hide
I scratched, I clawed, I broke the binds
Escape without the strain of life
No one will get out alive
[Chorus]
Painkiller
Give me the painkiller
Painkiller
Take me to the place where I can feel nothing
