Deteriorate Lyrics by Makari

Wave Machine

2024

[Verse 1]
How long can I survive this way?
Sing songs, get high and numb the pain

[Pre-Chorus]
Time keeps marching on
Fake a smile and lock myself away
To dwell on all I've done wrong
Carry on 'til I'm gone

[Chorus]
From first light, strive to create
Fill our lives with love and hate
Bide your time, count down the days
Say goodbye, deteriorate
(Deteriorate)
(How long can I survive this way?)

[Verse 2]
I gave a prayer long ago
And found out that I'm alone
'Cause no one cares, it's hollow
We just go 'til we're gone

[Chorus]
From first light, strive to create
Fill our lives with lovе and hate
Bide your time, count down thе days
Say goodbye, deteriorate
Deteriorate

[Bridge]
I've tried so many times
To feel fucking alive
Watch pieces of me float by
Wake up every day and try

[Chorus]
From first light, strive to create
Fill our lives with love and hate
Bide your time, count down the days
Say goodbye, deteriorate
Deteriorate

[Outro]
Deteriorate
