Discover the story of the song > 60cm Of Steel – Alpha Wolf

The song is about the protagonist's self-destructive tendencies and their partner's enjoyment of it. He describes feeling like he hates himself, but his partner loves seeing him suffer. He also references the Japanese ritual of seppuku, or suicide by samurai, as a metaphor for his emotional pain. The chorus repeats his feelings of being lost and unable to recover his consciousness, and he questions whether his partner actually wants him to be this way. The breakdown section suggests that the protagonist sees his struggles as a performance for an audience, with each cut representing a shallow breath.
