You poor thing

"I come as a blade,

a sacred guardian,

so you keep me sharp,

𝙰𝚖𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚗 𝚝𝚎𝚎𝚗𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚛

my favorite ethel lyrics considering she’s the greatest lyricist of all

“to love me is to suffer me”

“god loves you, but not enough to save you”

“but in the end, if i bend under the weight that they gave me, then this heart would break and fall as twice as far”

“i’m so beautiful and it’s wasted on me”

“it only hurts when it hurts yourself”

“yeah, you’ve changed but did i ever know you? or did i hold you facing away from me?”

“eat of me, baby, skin to the bone. body on body until i’m all gone. but i’m with you inside”

“everything i’ve loved, i’ve loved it straight to death”
