Lyrics
And I can’t sleep tonight
Is it worth it just to work to stay alive
I’ll burn myself at the stake
Cause I’m not perfect ever
Can you put your fist in my face
While I bite my tongue
I’m just another mistake
But it won’t get much better
Could you put your hands on my brain
And squeeze it till I’m dumb
I let the coffee stain my teeth
I dress my floor with my old clothes up to my knees
I heard my friends think I’m a freak
Well that’s alright cuz I’m afraid that I’d agree
I’ll burn myself at the stake
Cause I’m not perfect ever
Can you put your fist in my face
While I bite my tongue
I’m just another mistake
But it won’t get much better
Could you put your hands on my brain
And squeeze it till I’m dumb
I’m plaster in your callous hands
Rip off my tongue when I taste success
Pressure its my only plan
It’s my decision I’ll make my bed
I’m plaster in your callous hands
Rip off my tongue when I taste success
Pressure its my only plan
It’s my decision I’ll make my bed
I’ll burn myself at the stake
Cause I’m not perfect ever
Can you put your fist in my face
While I bite my tongue
I’m just another mistake
But it won’t get much better
Could you put your hands on my brain
And squeeze it till I’m dumb

Screaming crying throwing up. The song is everything I'd hoped.

[@reokagro]

D:

[@roekapara]

I’m also throwing up. Lots of corn.

[@JugheadJones825]

You need some pepto

[@CherylAwh]

@@roekapara Why is there always corn? Like even if you haven't had corn in 2 years some will come up. Like it's just lurking inside you, waiting for that very moment. 🤔 Love your lyricism and visual artistry. The corn inside me loves you more. 🌽

[@jaredfortin6810]

Honestly, every song from Roe slaps so hard I can't explain it, we dont desserve an artist like this but we got lucky enough to have one ❤

Love your music!❤❤❤

[@starprime5586]

NOICE, feels the a fever dream, like it

[@wi3rdsk8boarding16]

Perfect outcast vibes On my playlist it goes

[@Somewhere.360]

Feels like a battle between monotonous expectations versus living the life you want to your potential. It’s either accept being dumbed down into a role when others “rip out your tongue” for wanting to be more, or ignore them and be you. Be weird, nobody ever got anywhere fitting the mold. Love your music.

[@truecrime4722]

ANOTHER GREAT SONG 😭🙏

Damn this is good

[@slimff6129]

Как же мне любим твой художественный стиль, которые ты вкладываешь в свои клипы. Они так гармоничны и атмосферны. Так и сама музыка звучит потрясающе. Не описать столькими словами на свете, как вас я люблю!

[@iseeyou2787]

Gonna be honest, I wasn't sure about this one on my first listen. Now that I'm on my tenth, I can say, with full confidence, that's damn good work, Kapara. One of your best. Love the screaming on the second dumb, and the backing vocals after "think I'm a freak." Love to hear that sort of stuff in your music. Keep it up, you beautiful bastard you!

[@Just.Tilted]

wowowow this is so incredible

[@schnapapoo]

This absolutely RULES!!!! I looked up the lyrics like 1 minute into hearing it for the first time cuz I just had to scream along, amazing work as always from Roe Kapara 💪💪💪
