about

Welcome to Gibby's downfall.

Gibby's life hits rock bottom after an attempted suicide, brought on by the overdose of his bestfriend Freddy in a Tijuana hotel bathroom. Gibby then proceeds to have a breakdown, resulting in a murderous rampage.

lyrics

So you’re running out of hymns to sing
Yeah you’re running out of steam
Slowly losing your edge
Losing your grip on reality
Those glory days are over
You’re no longer the underdog
You’re becoming everything you ever hated
And so much more

And the water overflows the bathtub
And the blood drops hit the floor
And you’re gonna feel every inch of guilt
Right down to your ugly core
It’s too late
It’s never coming back
I don’t care if it’s not funny
I don’t care if it’s a little mean
I don’t care if your mind keeps going back
To the night that your friend OD’d
We can hear the trumpets blasting
And the sirens fill the street
One last neighbourhood disco for some
Fine young fuckers like you and me
Because there’s no epitaphs for the liars
No golden gates for those who don’t keep their promises
No tears shed for the lonely
No feasts held for the cowards
No prayers sung for the sinners
No congregation for the hated
There’s no second chance at redemption
This life is all we had

I have a knife
I have a gun
I am the son
I am the one
