lyrics

Your freckles are my bible
your eyes strike me ice cold
there's no escaping what we've been told

what good is it to tell you what hurts?
it just offends you
and I'm already here so keep me warm

so slap me and pull me
and tell me I'm pretty
and forget all about today's itinerary

I'll give you my body
to play if you want it
my mind's far away
I'm the easiest target
no matter what I tell myself
despite all that I thought would help
there's something mean inside of me
that puts me up up on the shelf

and if i just learn to just enjoy it
I'd be better off for it
because I do this to myself
every fucking time that I leave the house
In this body that is mine
that I'm expected to confine
until that part of me just dies
with every bit of my divine

yeah I know that I am capable
and powerful and changeable
but what's a girl to do
when expectations are insatiable?

So hurry me and bury
because my emotions are so insane
since I'm asked every day
to be the whore and player played

So hold hold me and hug me
push me and shove me
rock me back to life
a better version than you found me
let me open up and pour
my everything upon the floor
and I will put it all together once more

take me all the way back home
take me all the way back home
