lyrics

This is hell
This pain
It’s everywhere
In everything
It’s too much
And I can’t bare it any longer

A sickness
Riving inside of my head
Becoming more desperate
I’ve tried it all and nothing has availed
Gun to my forehead, very last option

I can’t take it

I need relief

‘I, um, made a T shaped incision right here on my forehead, a horizontal and then a vertical. And I had a shield over my brow here so that there wasn’t any blood dripping in my eyes to obscure my vision. Ok, so I, I pulled the flaps of skin back and inserted a fairly sharp pointed bit to get a pilot hole started in the skull bone. I used the, uh, method of a, uh, electrical powered flexible shaft drill. I went ahead through the first layer of bone into the spongy inner bone.’

I need to get through to the other side
So much blood has been spilled going
Deeper towards a solution
Such a tiny hole, piece of bone for peace of mind
Right through my skull, my last hope

‘I, uh, went ahead drilling and as, um, I was using the blunt drill, then the drilling got rather slow and the very bottom of the drill there broke through the bone and I could feel it start to give way. I withdrew the drill, the newly restored pulsation blasted that blood that accumulated up there into a spout coming out of my forehand and then I heard gurgling in my skull as the new equilibrium of brain blood volume and brain water adjusted itself.’

Drain me of impurities
Equalize my being
Resolve this crucible
Achieve balance within
Sustain my sanity
Dissolve the malady
Enlighten me
Make it all go away
All go away
