And So You Exist No More

from Tentatively Self​-​titled by Pete Davis

about

I used to think a line in a certain song was "You exist no more, for nobody loves you here." Turns out I was wrong. I always liked the line, though, so I took it and wrote a song around it.

lyrics

Sit down, keep your mouth shut.
Distance me with another altercation.
Disregard my feelings, my fears, just throw them all away.
So I can learn to be just like you.

Out with the comfort and face the wall forgotten.
Cover your ears and cherish the silence.
You exist no more, for nobody loves you here.
'Til death do us part and it's not that far away.

Lash out, be still.
This doesn't concern you, you've no right to interfere.
Solace evades me. I've been here before.
Then again, I never left.

Out with the feeling, there's nowhere to turn.
Cover your eyes and make the rest up.
You exist no more, for nobody loves you here.
Release the hold, and run that far away.

Time yourself to the tick of the bomb.
It will be your best friend if you desire.
Make way for your encumbrances, let them get a hold of you.
Count back from 100, you'll never sleep better.
