Soulsucker Lyrics – Waterparks

[Verse 2]
The second verse delves deeper into the emotional complexities of the singer. They acknowledge that one of them will inevitably get hurt in their relationship. Calling themselves "starfucker" suggests a self-deprecating acknowledgment of their flaws or destructive behavior. The singer mentions carrying guilt and shame and describes their life as a perpetual weekend, indicating a lack of purpose or direction. They also express a sense of numbness or invulnerability, claiming that if they're already dead inside, they can't be hurt further. The verse ends with a critique of religious faith, stating that they will only believe in a god who reciprocates love.

[Bridge]
The bridge shifts to a more assertive tone, with the singer vowing to take control and mend the broken aspects of their world ("I'll tape the cracks"). The repetition of "what you give out's, yeah, what you get back" suggests a belief in karma or reciprocal relationships. The mention of destroying the world and stabbing backs implies a readiness to fight back against betrayal and to take drastic measures to protect oneself.

[Outro]
The outro, "That's addition by subtraction," indicates a realization that sometimes, removing toxic elements from one's life (whether people or emotions) can lead to a better, more fulfilling existence. It's a recognition that letting go of harmful aspects can ultimately be beneficial.
