Jarret Beach, the person behind the one-man-band that is Discarded Self has this to say about the song “Push the Knife”:
"Push the Knife is a slow moving look into the mind of someone who is sick with depression and touches on the topics of suicide/blood sacrifice. How it feels like you don't want to exist in society, and you want to disappear and be forgotten. The song was originally titled Staple, and is essentially about barely holding your life together like a "bent staple with one arm" as the lyrics suggest. The song takes a horrible turn as the protagonist of the story performs a blood sacrifice of themselves in an attempt to become a demon, and seek revenge upon the whole world who has wronged them throughout their life. This song features Ashes of Yggdrasil's lead guitarist Brett on the drums, and backup vocals as well."
Flooding forth with misery and hate comes the first album from Discarded Self, the Canadian solo project from Jarret “Fuzzgod” Beach, who’s also a member of the bands Destroy My Brains and Ashes of Yggdrasil. Created during a time of personal isolation, the album “Discarded Self” ranges from tales of the macabre to introspective trips into self-loathing and personal degradation that dredge up terrible memories of the past to drown in personal regret. There is no hope for the future here.

LYRICS:
I'M BARELY BEING HELD TOGETHER
BY A BENT STAPLE WITH ONE ARM
BODILY HARM LIKE A PUSH OF THE KNIFE
FUCK THIS LIFE
WAVES OF DEPRESSION
SELF CAUSED OR NOT
DROWN ME IN ENDLESS MISERY
I'VE HAD ENOUGH I'M GIVING UP
I'M GIVING UP
I JUST WANT
TO DISAPPEAR IN THE WIND
AND FLY AWAY
EVAPORATE FROM THIS EARTH
AND BE FORGOTTEN
VANISH IN THE DARK
UNSEEN BY EYES
BECOME ERASED IN TIME
NEVER EXIST
NEVER TO EXIST
I'VE FALLEN APART NOW YOU SEE
SO SHOVE THE DIRTY STAPLE INSIDE OF ME
I WANT TO SACRIFICE MYSELF TO LUCIFER
I WANT TO CASUSE PAIN AS A DEMON FOREVER
PUSH THE KNIFE
HEY THERE, LORD SATAN
I MET A MAN THE OTHER DAY
AND HE TOLD ME TO
GIVE MYSELF TO YOU
SACRIFICE
PUSH THE KNIFE INSIDE
END THE LIFE
USELESS GARBAGE
PIECE OF SHIT
TORN UP IN CARNAGE
SACRIFICE
BLOOD TO THE MASTER
TIED DOWN WASTE
DRAINED IN THE CASK
LAY IN THE PENTAGRAM
FALL INTO THE FUCKING BLACK
LAND UNTO SATANS HANDS
PASS ON TO THE VOID
WITH ALL STAPLES REMOVED
I AM REBORN INTO HIS ARMY
A DEAD CHILD OF BEELZEBUB
HEINEOUS DEMON LORD
HE ACCEPTS ME
SKELETAL HANDS NOW HOLD ME
THE DEMONS WINGS HAVE SET ME FREE
I WILL GET MY REVENGE FOR MYSELF
BECAUSE YOU RUINED ME AND NOW YOUR DAMNED
PSYCHOTIC ESSENCE HAS FULFILLED ME
DAMNING PRESENCE OF THE DARK OUR OVERLORD
OUR ALL ENCOMPASSING MASTER
POINTS HIS CROOKED FINGER AT THE EARTH
BURN LIFE DOWN
CHOKE IT IN SMOKE
TEAR THEIR SKIN
YOU WON'T NEED IT ANYMORE
BURN THE BUILDINGS DOWN
DRY IT OUT IN THE SMOKE
SLASH THEIR SKINS
YOU WONT NEED THEM ANYMORE
HANG HUMANITY HIGH
BEAT THEIR DEAD BODIES
POWDER THEIR BONES
WE DONT NEED THEM ANYMORE
CONSUME EVERYTHING IN FIRE
DRINK THE OCEANS OF BLOOD
PISS AND SHIT ON THE DEAD
FUCK EM ALL
RIP OUT EVERYONES GENITALS
UNABLE TO REPRODUCE
KISS THE WORLD GOODBYE FOREVER
FUCK THEM ALL
LIFE SPIRALS AND LIFE FADES
INTO ENDLESS NOTHINGNESS
LET THEIR HANDS GO DROP THEM
INTO ENDLESS EMPTINESS
HOLDING IN MY PLEASURE
AS THEY BURN IN ENDLESSNESS
HOLDING THE HAND OF SATAN
OH LORD SATAN
