Bother ’23 (Still Bothered) - Stone Sour

[Verse 1]
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater

[Chorus]
You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go till it bleeds

[Verse 2]
Wish I was too dead to care
If, indeed, I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I had a reason
My flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying

[Chorus]
You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go till it bleeds

[Solo]

[Verse 3]
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgottеn with its memories
Diaries lеft with cryptic entries

[Chorus]
You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go till it bleeds

[Outro]
You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on... I'll never live down my deceit
