Read me to filth but don't put me in filth
Take the glove off my hand like I'm Cinderella
Tucking my hair behind my ears and holding an umbrella
Protect me from the rain, the sounds, and the noise
Buy me my favorite childhood toys
Keep me clean and well dressed
Keep my soul well fed so i can say I'm blessed
Take in my perfume while I'm laying on your chest
Hold my broken vase so it can take a clearer form
Take my hand and tell me you're there while I ride this storm 🌺
Black screens in front of you
You see only what's surface level, don't say it's untrue
Looking out the window while leaving the one for my heart closed
Stuck in a spiders web as they starve you and keep you decomposed
This arrow you shot covers me in blood
But you don't realize you're already dead
Storing your silence in a special box
When your pain is begging for a detox
Glitter doesn't make gold, you should know
And covering and burying problems just makes them grow
I won't be here to look after your plant
My selfishness is my shield and I'm making my descent 🎁
They hug me and promise a life in paradise just for me
I didn't know this love was a parasite
Get back what's mine and finally make things right
I look for black birds because I saw their distinction
So I know when I'm dealing with your reincarnation and swear off their possible affliction
I keep my air under a wrap
Because living requires it and sinking makes my hold on these lights snap
I hear the echos of my repressed hungry animals talking
And I know they're telling me they need to nap
And get their meal while sitting on someone's lap 🐦⬛
