Pushing like pudding
Like butter, like gold
You wanna get the cash, you wanna get the fool
You wanna find the fake, you wanna be seen
You wanna blame an addict but you're already a fiend
Fuck it, the whole world is gonna see
High off fumes, addicted to the feed
What's it all for? Like you don't really know
Another on the hook and another Jane Doe
When you're pushing back and forth then forth and back again
They say that you were free, now you're locked in a cage
You're pushing lies like your life is on the line
You want a reason why
Now you're begging for a sign
Maybe, maybe we're all fucked (fucked)
Maybe we'll all burn (burn)
Maybe we're all just purging
Yeah (yeah), maybe we'll all die (die)
Maybe you were right (right)
Maybe we're all just parasites
(Purge)
You cutting like glass, like needles, like knives
You wanna get the girl, you wanna win the fight
You wanna be a God, you wanna be a star
You wanna be another and this time you went to far
Fuck it, the whole world's gone mad
High off smoke, addicted to the fad
Why am I here? Like, I don't really know
Another in the bag and another Jane Doe
Now you're pushing back and forth, then forth and back again
They said that you were free, now you're locked in a cage
You're pushing lies like your life is on the line
You want a reason why
Now you're begging for a sign
Maybe, maybe we're all fucked (fucked)
Maybe we'll all burn (burn)
Maybe we're all just purging
Yeah (yeah), maybe we'll all die (die)
Maybe you were right (right)
Maybe we're all just parasites
(I can feel the purge)
(I can feel the purge coming on)
Maybe, maybe we're all fucked (fucked)
Maybe we'll all burn (burn)
Maybe we're all just purging
Yeah (yeah), maybe we'll all die (die)
Maybe you were right (right)
Maybe we're all just parasites

The underlying message of the song is to not fall too deeply into the rabbit hole, everything is about finding balance. I had a lot of emotions building within me when I approached the song for the first time and after years of holding it all in I finally got to let it out! Enjoy. – Maria Brink
This song came from our time in lockdown. We all had our own personal experiences during the pandemic, and we all saw the social unrest unfolding daily tearing us apart. It was such a crazy time. Our band, like everything else, was stopped in its tracks. During the lockdown I was sending Maria musical ideas I was working on, and this one really resonated with her. She even said, ‘This is gonna be our first single.’ Fast forward a couple years and all the pent-up frustration and angst came pouring out in Maria’s lyrics and performance, creating this crazy visceral song. – Chris Howorth, guitarist.
