The lyrics speak of feeling confined in one's own mind, longing for the end and wanting to watch the world burn. The narrator is overwhelmed with pain and hatred, unable to see the good in their life. They feel trapped and hopeless, as if they were born to lose. The chorus, "wipe my hands from this, I've had enough", echoes the desire to escape from the overwhelming pain and despair. The verses describe the narrator's struggles with self-harm and suicidal thoughts, as they try to numb their pain with hate and destructive thoughts. Overall, "Debase" is a deeply honest and introspective look at the reality of living with mental illness and the struggles that come with it. The song encourages listeners to seek help and support, rather than being consumed by their pain.
