[VERSE 1]

I woke up this morning and I wanted to die

And bury myself in the backyard

Where the bones of all my lovers lie

Somebody's expecting me

So I gotta say goodbye to this party

I never thought I'd see him till I bit the dust


[PRE-Chorus]

But when I die

I don't wanna be remembered

Not like this, not like this at all


[Chorus]

And if I killed myself right next to you

Would you even bother trying to save me?

Would you just look at me

And look back at your phone?

I'm hanging on by a thread and I need someone to cut it

I'll sign the linе, I'll do what it takes to feel alive


[VERSE 2]

Nobody herе knows my name

But I'm not surprised

I can tell you can't stop looking at me

With your fucking cannibal eyes

Do you wanna make a meal out of me?

Kiss me twice for yes

Meet me in the woods

And I'll make you a deal


[PRE-Chorus]

But when I die

I don't wanna be remembered

Not like this, not like this at all


[Chorus]

And if I killed myself right next to you

Would you even bother trying to save me?

Would you just look at me

And look back at your phone?

I'm hanging on by a thread and I need someone to cut it

I'll sign the line, I'll do what it takes to feel alive


[OUTRO]

If I killed myself right next to you

Would you even bother trying to save me?

Would you just look at me

And look back at your phone?

I'm hanging on by a thread and I need someone to cut it

I'll sign the line, I'll do what it takes to feel alive
