Describes a person's tendency towards self-sabotage. In essence, it describes a behavioural pattern where someone undermines their own progress or success just when things seem to be going exceptionally well for them they self-destruct and will often hurt those around them.
As soon as his business was going really well, a CEO needlessly chose to set up a competing business behind his business partners back discreetly asking all the clients to pay into it. He got caught red-handed and lost everything. This happened many times in his personal and professional life. As soon as the bucket gets full they kick it over.

The world seems too messed up to the point where modern society seems stupid and irrelevant. Is there any hope in this place anymore.
Something has to happen soon or I’m going to lose my mind. SEEMS LIKE My life is becoming more and more irrelevant.

How Soon Is Now?

I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

There's a club if you'd like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home and you cry
And you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

How Soon Is Now?
