STAIRCASE TO Lyrics by Vem

2020

[Verse 1]
Pocket knives became my closest friends
Tell 'em my darkest secrets and take blood oaths with them
Tryna see life from new angles but got a broken lens
Had hope at one point, something added, and got hopeless
Could never find the peace I need inside this mess, inside my head
Die in the process then try again
Been indifferent whether I should just go to bed
And nеver wake up, yeah I know it's so dеmented
Shouldn't have said it but best believe that I meant it
Can you help me find my happiness I think I left it
In my childhood, but I found this Smith and Wesson
Just the common thoughts of a young man with depression
I don't neglect it, I give it all of my attention
I soak in the sorrows so I can write what makes you lessen
Your admiration of me this be Van Gogh sending
His ear to you, can y'all lend me yours for a quick second?
Get this off my chest then have to get it off my chest again
Never ending cycle when I write so why not pull the pin
Set the pen down for a bit, take a hike to a cliff
Jump off of it
Give me a genie, I won't wait till the final wish
That's numero uno
You know I spew what I do know
Devil sits in the corner of my room, but on a new note
These thoughts weigh on me heavy like a couple of sumos
Will I make it another day? Man, honestly who knows
Wait

[Chorus]
My world fall apart
Everyday another breakdown
Truman on that staircase
I'm on my way out
Yeah I'm on my way out
I'm on my, I'm on my
Thoughts be like art
Fall apart and I break down
Truman on that staircase
I'm on my way out
I'm far away now
I can't complain now
But only one way away from me
I'm on my way out

[Verse 2]
May this be the grandest finale that you have ever seen
Overdose on the sofa from sadness and Ketamine
Numb from everything
I feel one thing, it's heavenly
But if I act brash, heaven probably isn't meant for me
Enclosed in the space that the world can't hurt me
But my thoughts are my biggest enemy surely
No visions of me happy with kids when I'm forty
Fearful I'mma ruin the love she gives to me
Tortured on the daily for no apparent reason
See my reflection in the morning, kill it by the evening
Apologies in advance for the day I say I'm leaving
Apologies for turning my cheek when they all be pleading
Can't hold on when this gravity won't let me
If heaven sent me, the planet must neglect me
And I neglect me, more than anything
Despise my conscience though they deem it as a blessing
I'm saying

[Chorus]
My world fall apart
Everyday another breakdown
Truman on that staircase
I'm on my way out
Yeah I'm on my way out
I'm on my, I'm on my
I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm
My thoughts be like art
Fall apart and I break down
Truman on that staircase
I'm on my way out
I'm far away now
I can't complain now
But only one way away from me
I'm on my way out
