about

Obsidian is a black stone, it is very brittle and can break easily, creating dangerous sharp edges. The song is an exploration of how it can be to feel like that as a person.

lyrics

Anything you want
Anything you need
I can't believe you'd be the one to walk right out on me
Anything you want
It's everything you need
It's all that I can be to build this wall of agony

Anything you want
Anything you need
All that I say as this mirror stares at me
Anything you want
It's everything you need
It's all that I can do to break this wall of atrophy

And I cannot help you understand
All these colours that make this soul a man
And I cannot help you understand
All these colours that...

I do this every time
Fail once and never try
I kinda wanna be the man to take you
At your word, believe the lies
Feel something good inside
I CAN'T
BUT I WILL

I live and learn
We're all gonna burn
It all sounds the same
'Cause I'll never change

I just came here to die
I cannot bear to try
I never be the kind of man to let you flinch from my caress
I cannot hear the cries
I cannot sympathise
I CAN'T
BUT I WILL

I live and learn
We're all gonna burn
It all sounds the same
'Cause I'll never change

I FUCK UP EVERY TIME
I SMELL OF SUICIDE
I’LL NEVER BE THE KIND OF MAN TO LET YOU INSIDE ALL OF THIS
I CANNOT HEAR THE LIES
I CANNOT EMPATHIZE
I CAN'T
BUT I WILL

I live and learn
We're all gonna burn
It all sounds the same
'Cause I'll never change

I… I live and learn
We're all gonna burn
It all sounds the same
'Cause I'll never change
