Do it myself

NSFW Skirmish: Do It Yourself (@melodic)Liner Notes
First time doing lyrics only, but I’m on the bus on my way home without my drum set, so…
Definitely comes from a place of chronic frustration.
Wrote it with punk aspirations and a touch of System of a Down flair.
Lyrics
I know it won’t get done I know it won’t get fixed I know it won’t get cleaned If I don’t do it myself
It’s not gonna get done Not gonna get done Not gonna get done If I don’t do it myself
It’s not gonna get fixed Not gonna get fixed Not gonna get fixed If I don’t fix it myself
It’s not gonna be clean Not gonna be clean Not gonna be clean If I don’t clean it myself
And I’m so fucking tired Fucking tired Fucking tired
And I’m so fucking done Fucking done Fucking done
And I’ve screamed it in your face Ten thousand times already And I know for a fact you heard me And I know for a fact you saw me So what is it really?
Why would you treat someone you love like this? How could you treat someone you love like this? Do you love me? Don’t you love me?
You don’t love me? You don’t love me.
That’s how you could treat someone you love like this. You don’t You don’t You don’t
You could scream it in my face for ten thousand lifetimes Tattoo it on both of our love lines On both of our life lines ‘Til I could finally read between them
Clean it Fix it Do it
It’s not gonna get done Not gonna get done Not gonna get done If I don’t do it myself
It’s not gonna get fixed Not gonna get fixed Not gonna get fixed If I don’t fix it myself
It’s not gonna be clean Not gonna be clean Not gonna be clean If I don’t clean it myself
And I’m so fucking tired Fucking tired Fucking tired
And I’m so fucking done Fucking done Fucking done
So fucking over that hope Over that lie Over this life
I know it won’t get done I know it won’t get better I know it won’t change If I don’t do it myself
