Lyrics
Cut It Shorter
backwards on the kitchen chair, towel on my neck
she's telling me about the guy from work again
and I say nothing
she puts two fingers on my jaw and turns my head
says hold still
so I hold still
she asks me how short I want it
cut it shorter, I've got time
nowhere I have to be tonight
that's a lie, I said it anyway
take it down to nothing if you want
your hands are already in my hair
cut it shorter, I've got time
eleven days, and I'm back on the kitchen chair
she says that grew fast, and she doesn't look up
and I say a month
she turns my head with two fingers, and I let her
she knows
and she lets me
then she asks me again, how short
cut it shorter, I've got time
nowhere I have to be tonight
that's a lie, I said it anyway
take it down to nothing if you want
your hands are already in my hair
cut it shorter, I've got time
About
I WANNA DIE is a rock project with a noir streak: a live band over a half-time backbeat, clean guitars with a little tremolo, and a voice that stays low and close to the microphone. The songs are about small rooms and the things people don’t say in them.
Cut It Shorter, released 3 September 2026, opens the new chapter. More is on the way.
