lyrics

My self loathing has been getting the best of me
It flares it's feathers when I get out of bed
My yellow teeth tell tales as my limbs all convulse
I speak in letters that you've never read
And I'm a rough draft pre dating stereotypes
You can tell by my mouth covered in blood not my own
No that's for you and your clothes,
And your ears and your nose
Just breath me in and make me feel less alone

I'm melting flesh off my arm
Drowning in black matter snow
I'm leeching onto warm bodies
To make a friend of my own
Cuz I'm so desperate and dumb
So sorry you had to know
The sun is shining to remind me
I'm no more than a ghost

A little illiteration to make me feel safe and sick
Ugly Shakespearean lines remind me my time is shit
I stacked my monuments high
Until they crumbled to dust
I hosted pity parties, swore my lungs succame to the rust
I'm tripping on my two feet, swallowing shit without shame
Don't need no fuckin God to tell me that I'm one in the same
My sickness is gluttonous
Painted in mildew and mold
My apathy it tasted better
Before I got so old

I'm lost at sea on a ship, drowning in wave after wave
In rural climates, city streets I'm overgrowth and decay
I found the journals where I told you you're too good for myself
The veins of my cigarette bleed through my sickness and health
I hope I choke
I hope I never wake up
My skin is peeling back, my nerves frayed
Fucking with my makeup
My skirt is burning at the bottom, gender fucked, irritated
My eyes shoot open for another to fight, i fuckin hate it
I fuckin hate it
I fucking hate it
