I Always Wanna Die (Sometimes) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I bet you thought your life would change
But you're sat on a train again
Your memories are sceneries for things you said
But never really meant
You build it to a high to say goodbye
Because you're not the same as them
But your death it won't happen to you
It happens to your family and your friends
I pretend

[Chorus]
And I always wanna die, sometimes
I always wanna die, sometimes

[Verse 2]
You win, you lose, you sing the blues
There's no point in buying concrete shoes
I'll refuse

[Chorus]
And I always wanna die, sometimes
I always wanna die, sometimes
I always wanna die

[Bridge]
Am I me through geography?
A face collapsed through entropy
I can hardly speak
And when I try it's nothing but a squeak
On the video
Living room for small
If you can't survive, just try

[Chorus]
And I always wanna die, sometimes
I always wanna die
Always wanna die
Always wanna die
Always wanna die
And I always wanna die
Always wanna die
Always wanna die, sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
I, sometimes, always wanna die
Always wanna die
Always wanna die
Always wanna die, sometimes

What inspired this song?

It was the guitar riff. We have this thing of when it feels really good, it feels unearthed, You know you found something like a relic. That was the main inspiration. Cause that guitar riff felt so like a thing, the opening guitar riff. I thought I had like nicked it and then my flatmate thought I’d...

I remember being in my house with my acoustic guitar. Very seldom are songs written like that for me.

Me and George produ...
