Scum Lyrics by Pratika

2020

Spent so many hours, I’ve been thinking of the days
If I could find the courage, I would meditate
Levitate, alleviate, throw away all this pent up hate
Pure sadness, an overwhelming darkness
A mind palace with shattered walls
A rope hangs from the ceiling
My thoughts feel restrained, my mind is caged
A hungry soul on a path of self-isolation and rage
A prime drinker, fine eater, soul tethered to the devil
Adorned with wealth from angry Gods, I feel a void
A spirited hollow, a blackhole, you can throw some coins in
My hands are dry, pockets empty, all I can feel is a cranial dysentery

I’d wallow in sorrow, I’d choose to lurk in the shadows
I’d live a ghost, bleed a virgin, die in a meadow

“I’m flattered you think of me as an example
The epitome of weakness, I mean, look at me, I can just flip the switch, a broken bitch..
Got filthy thoughts, head sore as shit, a lunatic!”

The feeling sinks right to the centre, I feel a thumping
The question of existence, the toxins in my blood are pumping
Who questions? YOU question my ability, mobility
Increase that, reduce this, that’s how you find true bliss?!
I’m breakable
I’d crumble like for a thousand, I have
For reasons, or people
But just more than the amount of times I’ve wanted to take myself away instead
Haha! You say I’m funny?
Well, great comedy comes from even greater tragedy
My lips charred, soul parched, I searched hard for the rosary
I’m the darkness
The dirt
The scum of the earth
Don’t sit next to me

I said.. Don’t sit next to me!
