MV: youtu.be/nrsr_-QXCv4

lyrics

it's 4 AM on a school night
100 calorie life
Making sure the set ups just right, just right

Burning every bridge that I grace
Making sure that I feel pain
Getting in a bitter headspace

At this pace I'm ready to go
I know your craving for a brand new low
I'm ready to go
To halt my growth and put on a show

To you I'm better-better-better off worse
You listen when it hurts too much to bear
It's like I'm better-better-better off worse
My happiness is never cared for

Over-analyze my broken heart
As the tempo kicks up a notch

'Cause I'm better-better-better off worse
You only ever like me in this spiral of despair

No, we must go back
Go back to 'my' roots if you could call it that
Go back to the hurdles that I've already passed
Reliving them over and over
And when there is closure
We gotta go bolder

I'm ready to go
Because I know my woes are a product to be consumed
Now you're running low
I know you want something new

But what else can I do?
Oh, what else can I do?

To you I'm better-better-better off worse
You listen when it hurts too much to bear
It's like I'm better-better-better off worse
My happiness is never cared for

Over-analyze my broken heart
As the tempo kicks up a notch

'Cause I'm better-better-better off worse
You only ever like me in this spiral of despair

Better off recovering than recovered
Better off hurting than to have hurt
Better off in the dark than in the light
Better off near death than be alright

Bleed out for audience approval
Tragic, but perfectly on schedule
You think by now that we would have learned
Behind every piece of art is a human to be heard

But I'm still better-better-better off worse
You listen when it hurts too much to bear
It's like I'm better-better-better off worse
Rejecting change to keep you there

Because I'm better-better-better off worse
You listen when I'm running out of time
It's like I'm better-better-better off worse
The mourning of one still alive

I oversimplify the tears I cry
While you tear them down line by line

'Cause I'm better-better-better off worse
You only ever like me-
Only ever like me when I wanna die

Circus-P recommends:

Fables of Farewell
by EmpathP feat. Avanna x Miku Hatsune

A beautiful album of bittersweet piano-driven tracks, my personal favorite track being "Rose + Thorn". If you enjoy the sad themes that are in my music, but prefer something softer, this is for you! Circus-P

In Bloom
by nostraightanswer

A very well produced album that coined the phrase "Vocatmosphere", it's very relaxing and interesting to listen to! My favorite track is "Castaway" Circus-P

Wesley Dreamers
by ODDEEO + Karma Wears White Ties

A really unique retro-indie album, mainly focusing on Vocaloid + Human duets. The tracks tell a progressing story, and is a huge pleasure to listen to! Circus-P

Literally one of my fav songs of all time. It really captures what an AI would probably feel like if they were sentient. Literally can't recommend this any more if I could, EVERYONE should listen to it :) mysticalespyeon96
