Words like nails and now you'll feel the scratch
A voice in my head says
"Never look back"
Watch me dig my own grave
My own grave
There's nothing left to love
There's a lot left to hate
Everything inside seems dead
Let me live this lie instead
I've got blood on my hands
One thing God won't understand
Never to escape this grave of place
The day that God gave upon grace
Rip my lungs from my chest
Tear me apart until there's nothing left
I don't feel anything
Until there's nothing left of me
Until I feel nothing
Until there's nothing left of me
Until I feel nothing
Till the sun burns out or until I put my fucking eyes out
What's worse?
This world or my only way out?
This world or my only way out?
So I was there the whole time
Forgotten when the world went blind
Lower me down
Six faces watch me
Lay me in the ground
Words like nails and now you'll feel the scratch
A voice in my head says
Never look back
There's nothing left to love
There's a lot left to hate
Everything inside seems dead
Let me live this lie instead
I've got blood on my hands
One thing God won't understand
Never to escape this grave of place
The day that God gave upon grace
Rip my lungs from my chest
Tear me apart until there's nothing left
I don't feel anything
Until there's nothing left of me
Until I feel nothing
Until there's nothing left of me
Until I feel nothing
About This Song
"Until I Feel Nothing" is a brutal exploration of emotional numbness and self-destructive despair, capturing the protagonist's descent into a psychological void where pain becomes preferable to emptiness. The lyrics depict someone actively choosing destruction over healing, embracing hatred as the only feeling that remains accessible when love has been extinguished. Musically, Carnifex delivers this anguish through crushing deathcore elements-punishing breakdowns, guttural vocals, and relentless instrumentation that mirrors the internal violence described in the verses. The song stands out for its unflinching portrayal of mental anguish, where the narrator seeks physical destruction as a means to feel anything at all, making it a powerful representation of how trauma can lead to emotional disconnection. This track exemplifies deathcore's ability to channel extreme psychological states into equally extreme musical expression, resonating with listeners who have experienced similar struggles with numbness and self-harm.
