Whispering you stare
Wanting you don't care
Kiss me make me cry
How did I wind up here
Wishing you were dead
Why are you in my bed
Ignore what's jeopardized
It's only me denied
Ohh I'm dizzy hazy
Ohh can someone save me
Ohh hypnotize me
Anesthetize the pain
You speak my name I hear nothing
You share your dreams I see nothing
Unconscious suicide aren't you gone yet
You make me remember things I want to forget
Walk in the park fresh air
I shoot my drink you're still here
Inside a child asks why
Who used to bring me here
Ohh I'm dizzy hazy
Ohh can someone save me
Ohh hypnotize me
Anesthetize the pain
You speak my name I hear nothing
You share your dreams I see nothing
Unconscious suicide aren't you gone yet
You make me remember
You touch my face I feel nothing
You taste my lips I give nothing
This starving soul must be fed
You make me remember things I want to forget
Yes I do need to feel love
And I used yours like a glove
But the memories come flooding back
All I want to do is paint it black
This starving soul must be fed
You make me remember
You speak my name I hear nothing
You share your dreams I see nothing
Unconscious suicide aren't you gone yet
You make me remember things I want
You make me remember things I need
You make me remember things I want to forget

    I love this song so, so much. There's just something about it. It makes me think about this guy I like, but i'm too shy to tell him and so when I talk to him it makes me think about how much I like him and I wish I could just forget about him cause it would make everything so much easyer. i know thats not what the song is really about, but thats what it makes me think about.

    This song is actually about child sex abuse. Leah herself was a victim and portrays her horrific memories in a way that any victim will find distressing.

    I can see how this song is tied to Leah's childhood abuse, as are many of her other songs. However, I can not hear this song without thinking of a guy. Things ended really badly between us, and I never got any resolution on the issue. Truth be told, I'd really rather forget about it. The lines "Yes, I do need to be loved/And I used yours like a glove" describe our relationship, and everytime I see anything connected to him, I feel so much guilt over what happened...

    I don't see how this is reminding people of liking guys and such... This song is deff about Leah's sexual abuse and that she is in a relationship that is "unconscience suicide," meaning that it is negative and only reminds her of the past memories. This song is heartbreakingly real and I think she was very brave to sing it.

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
