SOULSUCKER Lyrics – Waterparks – LyricsBull Ganlyrics

[Verse 1]
We never made it out of the loft, let alone the property
‘Cause Awsten’s scared of fu*king failing
And you’re just scared to leave
Jesus Christ, how sad is that?
If depression had a masterclass
I’m the only one who can get us out
So pray to me instead and I’ll save you now

[Chorus]
It’s been a pleasure, it’s nice to meet you
It’s been a pleasure, it’s nice to meet you

[Verse 2]
One of us will end up hurt
But you can call me starfu*ker
You carried guilt, you carried shame
I know the way
I sleep in the dark in the back of the deep end
I’ve been living on a 12 month weekend
I’m the bit of hell that leaked in
Pick it up from the floor to the ceiling
I watched you meditate, medicate but I’m here still
If I’m already dead, I can’t be killed
So fu*k away the feelings fast
Put all my belief in that
I’ll love a God when he loves me back

[Chorus]
Pleasure, it’s nice to meet you
It’s been a pleasure, it’s nice to meet you
It’s been a pleasure, it’s nice to meet you
It’s been a pleasure, it’s nice to meet you

[Bridge]
So, I’ll stop the world, yeah, I’ll tape the cracks, c’mon
What you give out’s, yeah, what you get back, yeah

I’ll stop the world, yeah, I’ll tape the cracks, c’mon
What you give out’s, yeah, what you get back (Oh)
Destroy the world, yeah, I’ll tape the cracks, c’mon
What you give out’s, yeah, what you get back, yeah
Destroy the world, yeah, I’ll break the cracks, c’mon
So sell me out, yeah, I’ll stab your back

[Outro]
That’s addition by subtraction

### Verse 1
The verse reflects on a sense of entrapment and fear. The narrator and another person never move beyond their current situation (“the loft”), symbolizing their inability to progress in life. Awsten, presumably the narrator, is paralyzed by the fear of failure, while the other person is too afraid to leave. The line “Jesus Christ, how sad is that?” underscores the despair of their situation. The narrator claims to possess the knowledge and capability to overcome depression, suggesting that their companion should turn to them for salvation instead of relying on traditional means or beliefs.

### Chorus
The repetition of “It’s been a pleasure, it’s nice to meet you” conveys a sense of formality and detachment. It may imply the end of a relationship or encounter, highlighting the superficial nature of their connections and the emptiness behind polite phrases.

### Verse 2
This verse delves deeper into the emotional turmoil and existential dread experienced by the narrator. The inevitability of someone getting hurt is acknowledged, with “starfu*ker” indicating a destructive, self-centered persona. The narrator recognizes the other person’s burdens of guilt and shame, while revealing their own dark and stagnant existence (“living on a 12 month weekend”). Describing themselves as “the bit of hell that leaked in” suggests a pervasive negativity affecting both themselves and others. Despite witnessing the other person’s attempts at self-care through meditation and medication, the narrator remains stuck, feeling invincible in their despair (“If I’m already dead, I can’t be killed”). The solution offered is to numb the pain quickly and reject conventional beliefs, only willing to love a god who reciprocates.

### Chorus
The repeated line “It’s been a pleasure, it’s nice to meet you” emphasizes the cyclical and superficial nature of interactions. It can imply a repeated parting or the emptiness of connections that lack depth and genuine emotion, reinforcing the theme of disconnection.

### Bridge
In the bridge, the narrator expresses a desire to mend a broken world (“I’ll tape the cracks”), recognizing the reciprocity of actions (“What you give out’s, what you get back”). Despite this, there’s an acknowledgment of a more destructive impulse (“Destroy the world”), reflecting an internal conflict between fixing and breaking. The final lines highlight betrayal and retribution (“sell me out, I’ll stab your back”), underscoring the narrator’s mistrust and readiness to retaliate against perceived wrongs.

### Outro
The phrase “That’s addition by subtraction” suggests that removing certain elements or people from one’s life can lead to overall improvement. It implies that letting go of toxic relationships or burdens can result in a net positive outcome.

### 1. “We never made it out of the loft, let alone the property”
This phrase signifies a feeling of being stuck or unable to progress. The “loft” and “property” symbolize limitations and confinement, illustrating how fear and hesitation prevent the narrator and another person from advancing in their lives or situations.

### 2. “If depression had a masterclass, I’m the only one who can get us out”
The narrator claims a deep understanding of depression, suggesting they possess unique insights or solutions. This line emphasizes the narrator’s belief in their own capability to navigate and overcome the challenges posed by depression, positioning themselves as a potential savior.

### 3. “I’ve been living on a 12 month weekend”
This metaphor describes a state of perpetual stagnation and lack of productivity. The idea of a “12 month weekend” implies a continuous period of idleness and aimlessness, where time seems to blend without meaningful progress or change.

### 4. “If I’m already dead, I can’t be killed”
This phrase reflects a sense of emotional numbness and invulnerability. The narrator feels so detached and desensitized by their experiences that they believe nothing more can harm them, as they are already metaphorically “dead” inside.

### 5. “What you give out’s, yeah, what you get back”
This line highlights the concept of karma or reciprocal actions. It suggests that the energy or behavior one puts into the world will eventually return to them, emphasizing the importance of mindful and intentional actions.
