Diminished Lyrics by Doc Backer

Hope-A-Dope

2022

Double check the locks
I live in a vault
No one’s gonna save me
These walls are far too tall
I’m such an architect
Can’t find a single fault
That’s probably my fault
As I’m the only one involved

My wrists ache from playing minors
Stomach ache from cheap ol’ diners
Never said that it’s exciting
Barely stand someone beside me

Spine shudder
When I hear sirens
Sigh and shake
No one’s behind me
Never said that it’s exciting
Barely stand someone beside me

“Maybe when you’re famous
Maybe I won’t hate us”
‘Till then this demon gonna stagger right on towards the fragrance
Flagrant in my basics
Arrogant these statements
Oh wait
Oh what is patience
Nah my heart-hole vacant

My wrists ache from playing minors
Stomach ache from cheap ol’ diners
Never said that it’s exciting
Barely stand someone beside me

Spine shudder
When I hear sirens
Sigh and shake
No one’s behind me
Never said that it’s exciting
Barely stand someone beside me

Falling through a blackhole
It tears apart the cells
She wants to kill a god
With her hand or with a prayer

They nod soft in understanding
Broken glass ‘neath the memory steps
You are not diminished yet
Oh
You are not diminished yet

My wrists ache from playing minors
Stomach ache from cheap ol’ diners
Never said that it’s exciting
Barely stand someone beside me

Spine shudder
When I hear sirens
Sigh and shake
No one’s behind me
Never said that it’s exciting
Barely stand someone beside me

Spine shudder
When I hear sirens
Sigh and shake
No one’s behind me
Never said that it’s exciting
Barely stand someone beside me
