Weary
01:58
|

I’m a pile of bones,
Empty and disposable
Don’t you dare fucking tell me I’m too pretty
Tell me about your fear of loss
Right before walking out
I’m still bare, I’m still bare
I’m still bare, I’m still bare
Ribs exposed and all
Sleeping endlessly so I can put this body to rest
Let me put this body to rest
Indecisive, fucking liar
I’m Disposable
Disposable
Let me put this body to rest,
Let me put this body to rest
Let me put this body to rest…
If I’m not lying in my bed made a coffin,
I’m just a ghost in my own city
Disposable, disposable

Choices
02:23
|
|||
I’m a strong kind of weak
The pins keep pushing farther in,
Pushing through pale skin,
Puncturing my red heart
Cause I chose you to move in closer
Closer than any other hypnotized soul
I chose you to hurt me
Oh the privilege I have
It’s a damn curse we can’t escape,
A curse we can’t win,
It’s a damn curse
The thought of trying to hold on hurts,
The thought of losing that heart hurts
Oh the terror of loss
Oh the terror of loss
Puncturing my red heart
I chose you to hurt me
I chose you to break me
I chose you to hurt me

Concussion
02:46
|
|||
It took a knock out for me to find,
I’m not as strong as I thought
Prince I had none
Prince I had none
But here we go,
Weak body, damaged brain, and a new mentality
A new mentality
Move along cause I’ll find a better recovery,
A stronger medicine,
A worthier drug
Oh a better drug
Give me a better drug
Drug me
I’m dependent; I’m dependent
Can’t function on my own

Libel
00:56
|
|||
You’re all talking,
But not saying much
Telling stories never true
And words never said
Off with her pompous head
Strive to be a lady
I’m too numb to even hearken
|
||||
6. |
Fornication
04:00
|
|||
Go ahead,
Tell me I’ll never be loved
Doesn’t even matter what devil words you beat me down with
Cause I’ve got it all together now
Someone’s heart is beating against mine
And I can feel something other than pain
Congrats to us,
To the prince and I
My insecurities, my secret, my ball and chain finally drowning in our sweat
I’ll never be sewn up again
I’ll never be sewn up again

D.I.D.
00:38
|
|||
Throw your money down
Can't buy your empty kid everything
Can't buy yourself a damn heart
Can't buy a bloody beating heart
|

Direct Tribute I
00:33
|
|||
Panicked and ran
My dented heart can forgive,
But you can't hide again
There's too many knights ready to break your bones
I'll drag you home and watch you bleed,
Drag you out the coffin where you rest,
Drag your blinded eyes and blackened brain
As long as I feel those bones,
My prince doesn't need a reflection
|
||||
9. |
Direct Tribute II
01:27
|
|||
(Let me feel your bones, go ahead and make me sore, make hurt, make me scream, shaking, ohohhh, I'm shaking, let me feel your bones, my heart's pumping blood, let me feel your bones, my heart's pumping blood, make me sore, my heart's pumping blood, my heart's pumping blood)
Poison apple in hand, tell me who's the fairest

Damaged Goods
01:32
|
|||
I could claim to have learned from my mistakes
Trust me, I’ve made plenty
But I’m left corrupt
Expectations and hope dispatched
Expectations and hope dispatched
I’ll fight back this time
If your intoxicated body pushes
I’ll be good, I swear
Anything you want
There when you’re slipping, not that you could break
You’re my recovery and I’m determined
But I dream of being your virgin
I dream of being pure with an unbarred heart
(Cause that I’m not)
I’ll fight back this time
If your intoxicated body pushes
If you strip me bare with lies
Does that mean I’ve learned or simply made damaged?
Or simply made damaged?

Intrusions
01:18
|
|||
This is my experience,
You can’t demand a part
We have nothing in common
And there’s nothing for me to admire you for
You’ve seen one piece
You know nothing
This is not all of me
And you’ll never get to know all
This is my experience
You can’t demand my part
With your presets and molds of what I am
Tell me who you think I am
Tell me who you think I am
Tell me what the fuck I am
Tell me what the fuck I’ve become
Tell me who you think I am
Tell me who the fuck I am
I swear I’m human

Blossom
01:09
|
|||
'Cause this is how you raised me
To be any combination I choose,
To have both tastes in me,
To have both tastes
An underlying wit that doesn’t need to be understood
And the bravery and heart to fight it all
The bravery and heart to fight it all
Everything I wanted to be
Everything I thought I could be
Those who only saw brutality
Never understood a modern doll idol
I’m still the same, I haven’t changed a bit
And we all know I never will

L.I.F.E.
00:47
|

We hold together pieces of the sun for each other, and take them home to keep. There's so much left to see. Someday I'd like to fall asleep.

He said something kind, but I couldn't pay attention.
I'm not alright, but that's okay. I'll be fine, just not today.
I'll stay inside my room, my pillow's my own best friend.
I'm not alright, but that's okay. I'll be fine, just not today.

P.O.N.X.

Send me another suicide note,
I still hear you breathing
It's way too fucking loud, it's way too fucking loud
You're coming clean with all now that you think it's all going to hell
Mistakes were spent on you, mistakes were spent on you
You'll never be a man, you'll never be a man
You'll never grow strong, you'll never grow strong
You'll never be a man and you'll never grow strong
Drink yourself away
Oh the music we danced to
Fuck your idea of Romeo & Rebecca
Pathetic, that's what you'll always be
Cause you left me home that night and truly believed you loved me
Scream one more time
Tell me I make you insecure
You're insecure cause you should be
Insecure because you're worthless
You regret the way you treated me?
Then get the fuck out already, get the fuck out with your broken heart
Your threats are a joke
How much can we possibly blame on mommy problems?
You'll never be loved, you'll never be loved, you'll never be loved
And that's certainly what you deserve

How to Be a Woman
01:07
|
|||
I know my parts are soft as well,
But you're an embarrassment to us all
I made my deals with the devil,
But I've got it all under my belt
It's about punching for your self
It's about kicking for your goals
Fucking bat those lashes for your soul
I'm sewn up anyway,
So the blind can't get through
Can't make me bleed
Can't make me scream
"You heartless tease,"
I dare you to fuss
Oooohhhhhh (I made my deals with the devil)

Love, Alaska Young
03:34

Get me out of this labyrinth
Suffer, suffer, suffer
"God oh God, I'm so sorry."
There has to be an answer out
Read another word, have a smoke, take a sip
Oh Strawberry Hill you taste so sweet
Pour the pink wine, pour the pink wine, pour the pink wine
"How many times can I fuck up?"
"Aneurysm. Worst day. I win. You drink."
"HELP ME GET OUT OF HERE"
Oh I see it now, I can see the light
"I want to go too! I want to go too!"
Your little hurricane's done
Straight and fast, straight and fast
Straight and fast, straight and fast
Straight and fast
Straight and fast
Straight and fast
Spread the white flowers over my grave
Like mother raised me to love
But, "Don't ever let them see me dead, Daddy"
"You shall love your crooked neighbor with your crooked heart"
I see where to forgive now
"...just a little girl terrified into paralysis, [she] collapsed into the enigma of herself"
Keep looking for my ghost
You'll find me where the sea breaks
|
||||
18. |
||||
I can't find you on a single page.
I have no idea what's real.
When the world ceases to exist,
Save the inches between our eyes.

Throw your money down
Can't buy your empty kid everything
Can't buy yourself a damn heart
Can't buy a bloody beating heart

Panicked and ran
My dented heart can forgive,
But you can't hide again
There's too many knights ready to break your bones
I'll drag you home and watch you bleed,
Drag you out the coffin where you rest,
Drag your blinded eyes and blackened brain
As long as I feel those bones,
My prince doesn't need a reflection

Poison apple in hand, tell me who's the fairest
