Darkness is pretty much a callback song for some of Josh’s previous work with lines like “End my life, Tell the reaper I’m sorry” which is a reference to one of the songs from his previous album Grim Peaks with more lines referring to songs like Heartbreaks and Suicidal thoughts.
This song is also a...
[Chorus]
End my life, tell the reaper I'm sorry
Suicidal thoughts in my head still haunt me
Wrote the fuckin' note, I read it back and then I trashed it
I don't wanna be depressed, it's just a fuckin' habit
Got tattoos on my arms, so I can't cut
Barely even stand my fuckin' self, so I can't love
Cut off all my friends, they ask me why I'm so heartless
I turn around and ask them why they leave me in the darkness
End my life, tell the reaper I'm sorry
Suicidal thoughts in my head still haunt me
Wrote the fuckin' note, I read it back and then I trashed it
I don't wanna be depressed, it's just a fuckin' habit
[Verse]
Heart breaks every time I see her face now
Flipped this shit myself and now it's at a million plays, wow
Failing all my classes, teachers saw waste of potential
Could've been a doctor, but the music more essential
I remember all the days when I couldn't feel my best
Now I'm fillin' up the bank cause I made it off of rap
But the sadness never changed, it don't matter what I have
It'll never go away, it'll never go away
[Bridge]
When I fall asleep sometimes, I'm scared I'll never wake up
When I fall asleep sometimes, I'll pray I never wake up
[Chorus]
End my life, tell the reaper I'm sorry
Suicidal thoughts in my head still haunt me
Wrote the fuckin' note, I read it back and then I trashed it
I don't wanna be depressed, it's just a fuckin' habit
Got tattoos on my arms, so I can't cut
Barely even stand my fuckin' self, so I can't love
Cut off all my friends, they ask me why I'm so heartless
I turn around and ask them why they leave me in the darkness
[Outro]
When I fall asleep sometimes, I'm scared I'll never wake up
When I fall asleep sometimes, I'll pray I never wake up
