lyrics

Why do I feel unworthy? Why do I grind my teeth at night? Why do I keep having thoughts that I don’t want to have? Why do I pick at my skin and my nails and myself? Why am I cruel? I want to know- why am I cruel? Am I sick? Am I unwell? Am I on my own here- just like everybody else? Why do I beat my head against a wall? Why do I drink myself sick sometimes? Why do I berate myself like this- always asking, nagging, why do I, why do I, why do I? Oh I don’t know who I’m asking, if this is a prayer, who’s listening? But I want to know- why am I cruel to myself? It’s John the Savage outside the lighthouse, that’s all this is right? Oh, I see how this works now, I’m talking to you. But do I really want to know, do you pick your scabs too? Are you cruel to yourself too? Oh I don’t know. All of a sudden, I don’t know where I am.

Such an excellent album. It truly is tough to pick just one song as a favorite. I went with Obi as it does such a solid job of setting up the listener for what will unfold as the album proceeds. Definitely catch these guys if you have the chance, they're amazing live too. - @ntxnoise NTX NOISE
