Masquerade from PUNISH by PUNISH
This track is about my own struggles with mental health issues. Specifically anxiety and depression. The song serves as an outlet for the daily struggles of living with mental health issues and the ways in which this can affect one's self-perception, one's relationships and one's general sense of wellbeing.

Lyrics
I'm losing motivation to do the things I love.
I've got that dead depression rotting inside my skull.
It's exhausting when I'm forcing.... fun.
It's lonely but I won't let it own me.... Nah!
Jealousy, insecure, they're better than me.
Anxiety, paranoia, the thoughts that could be.
And it's suffocating freedom and beauty.
And I'm masquerading....
I got a go to reflex and it goes something like this... Fuck It!
What is in my best interest, I seem to have no interest.... Fuck It!
Overpower before I am devoured..... Fight It!
I know the praxis, break the lock to access.... Fight It!
I got a blockage in my mind....
And it is killing all my time....
I'm breaking bonds and building beds....
The parasite inside my head!
