I Knew You'd Say it First

A couple right things to say at the right time
And I’m glad to call, I’m glad to call you mine
All the time
Warped like a doll and wrapped in paper
Your candy kisses say that I’ll be safer
Here with you
You smiled when I said I wanna be together
Didn’t take me too long for me to say forever
And I meant it
When you look in my direction it tastes like wine
And I always end up wasted by the end of the night
Scream my name

Just a few moments and everything’s different
Just look back at the beginning
We’ve come so far without even noticing

Marry me, oh, marry me
In a broken church just down the street
A love story they didn’t see
Coming
Take my hand and let it be
Not a care, so trick-or-fucking-treat
Let them look at me
And you

Just Rotten

We argue just to make conversation
Bite the dust just to taste the flavor
And I wanna know what it feels like
Cause we’re all curious
And I’d love to find a getaway
Escape for just a moment or two
Some dissect, some inject
But not me, I sit here and rot

Am I rotting?
Tell me now
Am I rotting?
My lips are blue
Am I dying?
I can’t believe
This is happening
Is this
Really happening?
Getting up
Feeling weaker
On my feet
Feeling numb
Am I rotting?
I feel it now
Am I rotting?
My bones collapse
It’s all over
Everything
Amounts to nothing
Everything
Leading up to this
Tell me now
Did it get to you?
Help me die
Am I falling?
Deeper now
Am I falling in?
Dark black hole
Yes, I’m falling in
Never ends
Why’s this happening?
Never ends
Get me out of here
Kill me now
I’m already dead
Zombie now
Here forever
Skin, bones, and blood
Am I rotting?

Who I Really Am

I tear holes into my face
Knowing that they will soon be scars
I look at my reflection
And say “this is who you are”
“You don’t deserve to be pretty”
“You’re a monster inside”
“You’re hideous, you’re ugly”
“When they said you’re not, they lied”
And they know who I am
Know what I become
But only the ones that come close
And there are only some
I feed on the ones I love
They hear me scream, and feel my breath
Breathing down their necks
It feels like death

Don't Be Vain, Happiness Is Shame

Happiness is vain
Self-love is incestuous
When you touch me I’m afraid
Because surely it’s a lie
‘Cause I don’t understand why
And it’s better that way
Or else I wouldn’t need you here
Wouldn’t care if you were near

I just wanna see the autumn leaves
Changing color, falling down
I’ll wear this costume religiously
When you meet me on the ground
See you later, summer breeze
Pack your suitcase, wear your frown

Life isn’t simple
No matter what they say
No matter how they say it
No matter if it’s true
They’ll surely fill your head with nonsense
That won’t mean shit in the end
And the end is when we die
Won’t matter if we try
