[Verse 1]

This is the end of your life

Shocking how long you fought to survive

Botch job, you fumbled the ball

Never quite got self-actualized

Your gut’s an old garbage can

Liver’s a purple bruised punching bag

Botch job, you’re falling apart

You never could hack the battering ram


[Pre-Chorus]

Beat down, repeat, beat down, repeat

Beat down, repeat, yeah


[Chorus]

You think this body’s invincible

As if this life was negotiable

Oh Holy Punisher, eat my soul


[Verse 2]

This is the end of your life

Bet you thought shit would turn out alright

Botch job, you bludgeoned yoursеlf

Always at the wrong end of the knifе

Your mind’s a cramped panic room

Blind anxiety’s through the roof

Botch job, your number’s been called

The doctor is in to loosen the noose


[Pre-Chorus]

Break down, repeat, break down, repeat

Break down, repeat, yeah


[Chorus]

You think these thoughts are incidental

As if this life was conditional

Oh Holy Punisher, let me go


[Outro]

This is not

This life was gonna look like

This is not

What I thought

This life was gonna feel like

This is not

What I thought

This life was gonna look like

This is not

What I thought

This life was gonna feel like:

Hell
