Discover the story of the song > Consuming Guilt – Youth Code

The lyrics depict a toxic and controlling relationship where the protagonist feels trapped and suffocated. They are constantly reminded of their partner's imminent death, and despite wanting to love their partner truly, they feel like they are being held back and restrained. The guilt of feeling like nothing they do is good enough consumes them, and they feel a sense of ownership over their partner. Despite wanting their partner to be free, there is no compromise in the relationship, and the protagonist ultimately feels like they are walking their path alone.
