Candidate For Suicide Lyrics

Well I'm a candidate for suicide
The more that I get old
I'm a candidate for suicide
The drugs have taken their toll
I'm a candidate for suicide
I was raped at 8 years old
I'm a candidate for suicide
'Cause I'm a cheap liar and a whore

I've been busted up and beaten down
No self esteem to make me proud
Anti social, depressed and cursed
well I hope i feel better when I'm riding in that hearse
And all my emotions have left me, and I no longer hurt

I'm a candidate for suicide
'Cause I'm burned out and too far gone
I'm a candidate for suicide
No matter what I do it seems wrong
I'm a candidate for suicide
'Cause I hurt the ones i love
I'm a candidate for suicide
Cause I never laughed that much

I've been busted up and beaten down
No self esteem to make me proud
Anti social, depressed, and cursed
well i hope I feel better when I'm riding in that hearse
And all my emotions have left me, and I no longer hurt
When all my emotions have left me, and I no longer hurt

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
