Overdue

I'd like to apologize for wasting all your precious time
But be frank with you, I often trade
A day of work for a single word
I rack my brain
Just to try and make it fit together
While you take the knife out of your pocket
And shove it in my chest

Twist it, kill me
I'm surprised I lived to tell the tale
It's a mirage for motivation
That's long been dried out

My black hole soul
Has returned to shatter my brain
It's the long-awaited sequel
To when I went insane
And I'm the target audience
For the play where
I fill all the roles
It's a 21st century spin on
Julius Caesar

Twist it, kill me
I'm surprised I lived to tell the tale
It's a mirage for motivation
That's long been dried out

Twist it, twist it
Kill me, kill me
Don't you think you're overdoing it

Pick a number anywhere from one to ten
We'll go on a hiatus
Since it's commonplace to hate us
Cause the experts are at it again
How easily that we forget
There's a mind behind each melody
A kid with a dream
Just to sing a song for you

Twist it, kill me
I'm surprised I lived to tell the tale
It's a mirage for motivation
That's long been dried out

Twist it, twist it
Kill me, kill me
Don't you think you're overdoing it
You're overdoing it
