Pain can either turn you into a helpless beggar or a Vicious Monster. I chose the latter, and I have zero remorse. Welcome to the first music-video for my upcoming album: BUTTERFLY STITCHES • 蝶 ステッチ. "GHOUL OF WV" is just one facet of this Black Diamond that's been formulating under immense & intense pressure. Enjoy, my friends. #NOTESQAUD
lyrics
(Intro):
Ay.
(Verse 1):
Love and hate is just the same.
Even when I feel fucking great, I'm stuffed with rage.
I'm like the Devil's puppet; slave. Nothing's strange.
I don't want a hug today. I'm numb and dazed.
Don't be affectionate. I can't reciprocate.
Trying it gets me angry when I'm in this state.
I'd eat your heart off a dinner-plate
like I was given steak. Why are you twisting fate?
Cut-throat to the max.
"Don't give a fuck"-mode to the utmost in a flash.
I want to be alone and relax
because if I don't, you'll for once know how the emotions
in one's soul can detach.
they've been quite unknown. I don't want those.
Xanax crumbs from the nose.
I could show you my thoughts with a snub, though. (Push me)
I'm on the edge and can't wait to jump off of it.
This place is a coffin.
I'm buried six-feet and still wasting my oxygen,
screaming at you 'cause you've made this the farthest from...
copeable. Shut the fuck up and close your mouth. I'll sow it, too.
You're culpible. I'll tattoo it so when I go, the truth is so noticeable.
I know what to do. Life is garbage. Don't hold me to it. What's left don't matter.
Happily Ever After in this mess is rather funny. I can't dead the laughter.
(Hook):
Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
I can't exist in denial. Everything's so fucking vile.
Wow. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
I can't exist in denial. None of this is worth the while.
Ay. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
Ay. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
Wow. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
I can't exist in denial. Everything's so fucking vile.
(Verse 2):
I'm Ken Kaneki; Root A. Rotten and two faced.
Smock with a few blood-drops from these two blades.
Humans are similar in nature.
Try to survive when I lift the murder-rate.
Were you itching for a savior? I need the right mask
and the eye patch. I'm sinister and way worse.
It's like I rose up out of the grave.
Lazarus. Man, I'm that wicked. You imagined it? Naw.
Before the pandemic, I was hazardous.
Look at my face and they're maggots crawling from half of it.
Back up because I'm bad luck and I'm a savage.
I can't look up at the Sun. Guess I gotta' blacken it.
Ravenous little bastard that's full of malice.
Every song's got a demon hidden in the back of it.
How could you fathom all the bad shit that I practice?
My abdomen's like a black pit. You can hear the laughin'.
(Hook):
Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
I can't exist in denial. Everything's so fucking vile.
Wow. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
I can't exist in denial. None of this is worth the while.
Ay. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
Ay. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
Wow. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
I can't exist in denial. Everything's so fucking vile.
(Outro):
Ay. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
Ay. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
Yeah. Joker Smile, Joker Smile.
I can't exist in denial. Everything's so fucking vile.
