Dear Diary,

Bring Me The Horizon's song 'Dear Diary,' is a raw and intense exploration of mental breakdown and societal collapse. The lyrics are presented as entries in a diary, capturing the protagonist's descent into madness amidst a chaotic and apocalyptic world. The song opens with a sense of confusion and paranoia, as the protagonist notices strange occurrences like a malfunctioning TV and a barking dog. These seemingly mundane issues quickly escalate into a surreal and horrifying reality, symbolizing the fragility of the human mind under extreme stress.

The recurring line 'The sky is falling' serves as a metaphor for the protagonist's perception of the world crumbling around them. This phrase, combined with the visceral imagery of being 'traumatized for breakfast,' paints a picture of relentless psychological torment. The mention of 'God is a shithead and we're his rejects' reflects a deep sense of disillusionment and abandonment, suggesting that the protagonist feels forsaken by a higher power or society itself. This nihilistic view is further emphasized by the chaotic and aggressive tone of the music, which mirrors the internal turmoil of the protagonist.

As the song progresses, the protagonist's grip on reality continues to deteriorate. The lyrics describe a physical and mental transformation, with references to feeling 'itchy like there's bugs under my skin' and the dog going rabid. The climax of the song reveals the protagonist's complete descent into madness, as they nonchalantly mention eating the dog's face and the extinction of the human race. This dark humor and grotesque imagery highlight the absurdity and horror of the situation, ultimately questioning the meaning of existence in a world that seems to have lost all sense of order and purpose.
