SUFFERER - Chapter V (ACHE)

LYRICS:

If I tried to do this alone
There’s no chance that I’d make it
It’d bury me
I depend on you
You’re my home
But god how it scares me to think that your patience is wearing thin

Do you see it on her face, the resentment?
For every time you shook her out of her sleep
For every time you pushed and begged her to end it

Stay with me, stay with me 'til it all passes me by
I’m sorry this happens and thank you for giving me time
Let me bury myself in your comfort
Though I know that I’m leeching you dry
Will you carry me, still call me lover
Though the weight of me shows in your eyes

I sense it, the increasing distance and
I sense it, your exit plan forming and
I sincerely fear that I’ve turned you to ice
No longer your sense of warmth

Stay with me, stay with me til it’s all gone
You’re a shelter from storms no one sees as they’re passing
And you’ve weathered me silent and thankless
Never asking

Patience is the only word that I seem to forget
Any lesson learned is lost in the process of living in...
How many times will you allow me to cut you down?
Unintentional incisions bleed you dry of your time
Are you wasting your life with me?
Pull out my eyes
Great winding stairways leading to nothing built upon something I thought would change
All I need is you
Please leave me here

perfectly captures what its like to struggle with mental illness whilst in a serious relationship

[Gooman]

This is so raw. I've lived this for years. Depressing, yet somehow comforting to hear it put into words. I think it's helpful to know I'm not the only one that goes through this. Stay strong friends ❤️

[seetheandbreak]

How did y'all not blow up. This is insanely good

[ylyll]

This song. This song gets to me so badly.

[JiuJitsuTrashcan]

Wish you guys came here to Memphis TN. As someone with major depression, anxiety, and intermittent panic attacks, this music resonates with me deeply.

[sakuracharm]

I wish you guys would get picked up for a tour and come to Dallas! I swear, I'd give everything to see you guys and meet everyone. Shane has been an idol of mine since I was 13 as well as Cory, hearing them stick up for those who suffer from the day-to-day depression and anxiety means so much to me and others who can relate to the issues they point out. Keep doing you guys, I'll always be a fan of you guys and will always believe in you doods!

[DannyChubird]

This and Nocturne are the only songs on the album I can't relate to, so other than that, stellar album.

[NOTSERP]

I.. Ive... never heard anything like it..
