They designated us sinners Instead we found ourselves sisters We can't just let the shame linger, on and on Don't get caught up in the fissure Reach out, grab onto my fingers My hands are starting to blister, but I'll hold on Your life is well worth the risk, or, 'Out with a bang, not a whimper.' May love pour out like a river, into your heart A tongue of flame softly whispered, "As I grow dimmer, you shimmer. Despite the bleak, there still remains a glimmer of hope." .... Turns out some can get away with murder Never mind the way they carved & burned her I saw the way they bragged about it Gladly did everything in their power to hurt her Know we not what violence looks like? Dare we not replicate or celebrate it. Would you climb up on my altar? Spill the wine and desecrate it. I'd be just fine with 21 Please don't give me 22. I wanna take home the gold, Better do what I'm told, I don't wanna be without you. I never even asked for 21 Why'd you have to go and give me 22? I know its too late to fold But i don't play, fuck the rules, blackjack, beat me black and blue Death, she becomes thee, Don't go out quietly. Let me hear you scream, So at least I'll have felt it when you leave. They said, "Execute the Queen, Bury her body out at sea"; Is that a fitting end for me? I'll commit those words to memory. Does anybody wanna split the burden ? We pass the trauma back & forth between A truth of which we can't seem to be certain, and all the things we said but didn't mean. If forests all across the continet are burning, Surely half the shoreline sunk below the sea Do you think we'll ever find the safety worth it For us to settle down and have a family? There's gotta be at least half a million another ways For us to live to see another day. I'd like to think that we'll all be ok, But I'll never know, few things for certain we can say. Girl you know you got it going on But i couldn't help but notice something's wrong. So why don't you sing a new song? I can't stay for too long, but i want you to carry on Safety escapes me, I ache for stability . Baby, don't break me. I know that only I can save me. Love will enfold you, Just let it hold you. Remember what we told you: It was an honor to behold you

Hands painted red, with all the lies in your head, Like if we found ourselves together, would we both end up dead? Impure intentions misread, turned contradictions instead; Could I default on every word that I've said? Would god allow me to return to the life I once led? I shoulda been more careful where I tread. We two are seamless, spun of the same thread. Easy now, settle down, we'll surely find a way out. Our hands are woven together in gardens, roses abound; That silver locket you found, atop my burial mound Was forged in fires burning deep underground And it holds fast my heart and keeps it safe & sound. I'm glad to see that you are still around, Cus we've got a few things left to talk about. ... Like when you place you hands upon me touching everything but-- Said I was too drunk to fuck, guess that's just not good enough? And with your tongue in my mouth, the taste of wine turns to rust. Must our affection give way to primordial lust? Oh fucking A, why did I think you were someone i could trust? All you wanted from me was just another thrust. Disembodied libido inflicting unwanted touch-- I thought you might treat me better, I shoulda figured as much. ... Yeah, we existed in those spaces, And every step we took left traces. Do you remember all their faces, And how they blessed us with their graces? A head all full of distant places, A land that time forgot for ages, A heart enduring all these changes, Your smug expression rearranges. ... Oh It's time to go. How didn't you know? Leave me alone! I wanna go home! ... Sex-sick, loveless Limp wrist, bruised fist Chapped lips, last kiss Heart grifts, could you show me with your fingertips? ... Guillotine grip, goddamn you're gonna get sick-- Not so deep, not so quick; why do you call it a dick? Shiver, sugary slick coming back half as thick, Left at, I don't know what to do with it: Should I just put it away or submerge it in spit? No wonder I been having all of these fits. Can you see where the gaslamps are lit? I wanna take you home and rip your clothes off And hold you in a gentle light that shows off Every stretch mark & scar, so you can see how lovely you really are-- But here we are in the road again dodging in between cars! Better keep your hands tight to the bars. We got a rough road ahead going far. ... And then the shock washes over and all I'm left with is shame-- How could I have been so naive? I played right into your game! Oh, but how can I blame when I'm guilty of the same? No time for reconciliation; circumvent all this pain! And if you want, we could start over and forgive all the hurt. Take all the time and space you need, I hope you know what you're worth. Some comfort comes with choosing life and leaving death in the dirt; May we join hands & lay prostrate and give ourselves to the earth! .. My ink keeps dripping and I'm slipping away! How can I ensure I not become one with decay? Goddamn, I think about it every day. I think I oughtta teach myself how to pray, again. ... No more Violence! End this silence-- Could we all pull together now? Please-- Breathe. Could I forgive you? My arms lay open wide.
