    CUT ME LYRICS
    When I'm weary
    And so worn out
    Ooh, when my mind's clouded and
    Filled with doubt
    That's when I feel
    The most alive
    Masochistic kisses
    Are how I thrive
    A stiffness (in)
    Inside my neck (and)
    Bangin' my head (a)
    Against the desk (woah)
    If there's no pain (is)
    There any progress
    That's when I feel
    The most alive
    Endurance
    Is the source of my pride
    Might not be healthy for me but seemingly I need
    What cuts me, cuts me, cuts me, cut me, cut me, cut me
    Guess I'm a true immigrant son
    No vacancies, no vacations
    Sure, I could do better than this
    But I don't, I wont, I don't
    Might not be healthy for me but seemingly I need
    What cuts me, cuts me, cuts me, cut me, cut me, cut me
    Hurt me, hurt me

    I love this sooooo much. I found this song at the perfect time, I was having a bad day and then I came here. It's wonderful storytelling how he starts off in the ambulance (to symbolize how he let his problems disable him) then movies to the dancer twerking on the ambulance (to accept the absurdity of the problems of this life and to not allow it to steal your joy) and ending the music video riding the ambulance (symbolizing self mastery and not allowing the problems of this world to disable him anymore). I love everything this man puts out, and I can't wait for what comes next. Hopefully when COVID-19 is under control he can have a concert in Philly.
