Laid to Rest Lyrics

If there was a single day I could live
A single breath I could take
I'd trade all the others away

The blood's on the wall
so you'd might as well just admit it
And bleach out the stains
commit to forgetting it
You're better off empty and blank
Than left with a single pathetic trace of this

Smother another failure, lay this to rest
Console yourself, you're better alone
Destroy yourself, see who gives a fuck
Absorb yourself, you're better alone
Destroy yourself

I'll chain you to the truth,
for the truth shall set you free
I'll turn the screws of vengeance and bury you with honesty
I'll make all your dreams come to life
And slay them as quickly as they came

Smother another failure, lay this to rest
Console yourself, you're better alone
Destroy yourself, see who gives a fuck
Absorb yourself, you're better alone
Destroy yourself

See who gives a fuck
See who gives a fuck
See who gives a fuck

Failure

If there was a day I could live
If there was a single breath I could take
I'd trade all the others away
I'd trade all the others away

What is the Meaning of Laid to Rest?

This track takes listeners on a raw, emotional journey through the struggles of self-destruction and isolation. It portrays the pain of living with regret and the desperate desire to erase past mistakes, even at the cost of one's identity. The lyrics also suggest a sense of disillusionment and betrayal, hinting at vengeance and brutal honesty as means to confront reality. Ultimately, it paints a bleak picture of despair where one would rather trade away their existence than face their failures. Yet, it also serves as a stark reminder about the destructive consequences of dwelling in negativity and self-absorption. #Despair #Regret #SelfDestruction
