about

𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐨𝐮𝐭 introduces a person struggling to feel fulfilled, causing them to spiral into a self-destructive state: We use addiction as a personified creature in this song.

The lyrics go on to paint a picture of their mental struggle with feelings of worthlessness and self-doubt. They lean heavily on alcohol to cope and numb the pains. Trying to hide their demons only drives them, pushing them closer to their breaking point.

This outro is a cry, or a plea for help, but they’re left feeling unworthy.

lyrics

Growing, gripping
Tighten the squeeze 'round my neck
Feeling numb
Hoping everything will turn black
Will to live is what I lack

Can’t condemn what’s already dead
I’m already dead

Can’t kill what’s already dead
Silence is what I’m left to dread
Gouging eyes out from inside my head
Can’t kill what’s already dead
Silence is what I fucking dread
Shrouded in malicious lies
It’s time to let the scum die off

Leaving me clinging to my sanity
I’m blinded in deceit
Consumed in defeat
They won’t see the darkness rising from beneath

Voices calling from the dead
Drown them in all the toxins of my head
Demented
I’ve always hated what’s inside but empty eyes hide my despise
This grin has become my disguise

Blackout

I’ve always been one you can live without
Body thrown to the ground, suffering and bound
Burned into memories
Can’t unsee the truth that hides beneath

Hiding beneath the facade
We played, I know I have tried
I got away
But again I rely on toxins rotting my mind
Body decaying
No fucking sense in staying
No fucking sense in staying now
I’m not worth it

Growing, gripping
Tighten the squeeze 'round my neck
Feeling numb
Everything has turned fucking black
Will to live is what I lack

Do not resuscitate
I can not take another fucking day
Living like this, this isn’t it
Turn your backs and listen as I plead this pain will end

Blackout
