In an interview with melodic magazine, Cody Carson had this to say about the inspiration of the track:
“..the amount of people that end up entering my life that are incapable of saying ‘I’m wrong,’ ‘I messed up,’ or ‘I’m sorry’ is baffling to me. Instead, you’re met with finger pointing, excuses, an...
[Chorus]
So light me up, my little projector
And eat me up like Hannibal Lecter
Then turn us from a friend into strangers
'Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong
Enough's enough, projector
So sit us down and give a new lecture
Then wear us out like ugly old sweaters
You bummed me out 'til I wrote a song
Enough's enough, projector
[Verse 1]
Shut the fuck up, please
You flap your gums until I wanna pull my teeth
You may invade their brain
And wear them down into insane to say
“Oh wow!”, “Oh word!?”, “That's wild, I agree”
But that cannot be me
I see through evеry smile like twenty thrеad count sheets
Apologize or die, you'd choose the latter not the right to be a decent human being just for once
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm talking to a wall again
Why do I even try?
[Chorus]
So light me up, my little projector
And eat me up like Hannibal Lecter
Then turn us from a friend into strangers
'Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong
Enough's enough, projector
So sit us down and give a new lecture
Then wear us out like ugly old sweaters
You bummed me out 'til I wrote a song
Enough's enough, projector
[Verse 2]
Shh, listen more talk less
I've seen this film before and I know how this ends
You tell me how you're right to light relationships on fire
And try to lock us all inside because you're wrong
Wow, look at your success
You shit on all your friends and blamed 'em for the mess
But I don't need to believe everything that I read
I can see there's a demon that's stealing my peace
A disease that never leaves until I sing through gritted teeth
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm talking to a wall again
Why do I even try?
[Chorus]
So light me up, my little projector
And eat me up like Hannibal Lecter
Then turn us from a friend into strangers
'Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong
Enough's enough, projector
So sit us down and give a new lecture
Then wear us out like ugly old sweaters
You bummed me out 'til I wrote a song
Enough's enough, projector
(Projector, projector, projector)
[Bridge]
If stubborn is as stubborn does
You've done enough tonight
I'm talking to a wall again
Why do I even try?
[Chorus]
So light me up, my little projector
And eat me up like Hannibal Lecter
Then turn us from a friend into strangers
'Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong
Enough's enough, projector
So sit us down and give a new lecture
Then wear us out like ugly old sweaters
You bummed me out 'til I wrote a song
Enough's enough, projector
[Post-Chorus]
Shut the fuck up please (projector, projector)
Shut the fuck up please (projector)
So light me up, my little projector
