lyrics
------
verse 1
----8---
low self-esteem, i'm living in depression,
self-esteem, it makes me show agression.
all i want is for you to understand,
all i want is to look like a real man.
where's my mirror? hanging on the wall,
when i look in it it makes me feel small.
through my eyes, i'm in anhedonia,
through my eyes, strain on the optical nerve, now.
chorus
------
lay on my bed, all alone at night,
contemplating to live-out suicide.
i'll never hook up with a girl,
cos in society i'm always made to crawl.
verse 2
-------
no empathy, but quick to take for myself,
empathy, i keep it on my backshelf.
solitude, forgot the repercussions,
solitude, an earth-born martian, now.
bridge
------
i'll never hook up with a girl,
cos life is unfair and cruel.
i'll never make it in this world,
the life i'm living is small.
