Non-Breath Oblige (English Cover)【Trickle】「ノンブレス・オブリージュ / Pinocchio-P」

I'm suffocating...

I am very, VERY proud of this one! This is my first-ever birthday upload, and I don't think that I could have picked a better song to show off my growth over the years!
This song is about escape-goats used for blame and guilt to be pushed upon. Those who hold their breath have become the targets that allow society to continue.

I will let the words speak for themselves.
I hope that you enjoy :)

This whole world preys on division and hate,
And so being liked by everyone would feel strange,
But even then, is it a sin to want to take your hand
When the writing on the wall is screaming "HOLD IT IN"

Giving up and giving into what the masses say
With a smile on my face, I'll throw my heart away
Pucker for the post-truth,
Last act of the play-
On this stage, any love has been withered away

With selfishness, let's aim this sick bitterness and shoot its loud nonsense
At scapegoats bred just for this hatefulness-
haute couture licenses


They'll single you out, cut you down like it's a game, an
Innocent life is a target all the same,
To them it's all a joke if it's not their pain
You're nothing more than a thing to blame

I Wanna live, but I'm better off dead
  Wanna quit, but you said live instead
  Wanna live, but I'm better off dead
  Wanna live, but is that a sin?
  Am I entitled to my joy or pain?
  No, I'll keep quiet, and I won't say a thing
  No, I won't fight it, I'll take the shame
  So give me your hate

One, two,
"We are the lives suffocated by hatefulness and lies made to point the knife"
One, two,
"We are the lives suffocated by hatefulness and lies made to point the knife"

Doesn't matter what I choose,
I will be the one to lose

Everything's give and take, love or hate,
Neither one is safe
So I'll stop here, shutting off my brain
And become a dog, I won't fight anything

Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath Oblige, oh,
I love you

Wilting from pain beneath these suffocating days
A flower born of blood is choking, reaching up

Faith in a complex, complex, complex, complex abused for hate will hurt you
And so you don't rock the boat, shut your mouth, keep it closed
A Non-Breath Oblige you obey
And take the pain

Yeah, I'm better off dead
Wanna quit, but you said live instead
Wanna live, but I'm better off dead
Wanna quit, but you said live instead
Wanna live, but I'm scared to death of all the chainsaws in the hands of men and women saying that they carry in defense

Our love's like flowers in spring, withering up,
Drowning in the hate of humans every day

One, two,
"There are many lives suffocated by loneliness in life, without love or light"
One, two,
"There are many lives suffocated by loneliness in life, without love or light"

Twisted feelings, peeling, eating me away
Blackened, broken-hearted tears I cry in pain

Ugly feelings hidden deep in me
Fly far away as they burst through my teeth

Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath Oblige, oh,
I love you

While diving deep into this sea of non-breathing
I look up to the sky that shines so bittersweet

Bystander mindsets, mindsets, mindsets, mindsets- trapping help from behind a screen

Pacified by all the lights in our digital lives,
We lie to ourselves that we're fine-
With breath held tight

Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath Oblige, oh,
I love you

And so you don't rock the boat, shut your mouth, keep it closed
A Non-Breath Oblige you obey
And take the pain

I'm holding in my breath...

Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath, Non-Breath Oblige, oh,
I love you
Sheltered from bombshells of hate, we can stay tucked away
To keep what we love held safe
I breathe with you
