What's this song about?

1
Here's an ode to the things we can't control,
2
how they take hold of us
3
like fuel to our lust,
4
gasoline in our guts,
5
touch a spark and let the flames grow
6
If I tried to describe it, would you understand
7
or would you feign sympathy and wait for it to pass
8
I never asked for this, maybe its what I deserve
9
Too weak to control it, left only to purge
10
You never saw its true face,
11
so you couldn't see the fatigue
12
not so much that I needed sleep
13
just how some things make you weak
14
so you don't notice the blood until the knife is twisting
15
But I recall, in the emergency room
16
with the curtains pulled,
17
how you said you knew, but you stopped.
18
And I don't need an answer for why
19
I guess you learned not to pry,
20
my pain taught you to cut yourself off.
21
But I can't, and it hurts
22
First its clear, still cold in my throat, then my lips
23
then its black, like spitting up smoke from the fires in my lungs
24
then it comes, and its thick and its red and it comes and doesn't stop
25
my insides all cut up, bleeding out
26
Thats how it feels, thats what its like to give up.
27
And I've been giving up
28
Its like I'm hardly alive
29
Trudging through nothing to the other side.
30
There's no point; I'm sick of trying.
my song PS5 was originally called PS4!
