Whatever it is
It’s under my ribs
And I don’t know how to talk about this…
How do you look like that?
You’re not dressed like a monster
you talk like a savior
Wasn’t just the first time enough?
You’re not dressed like a monster
I look over my shoulder
And why didn’t I
See it coming oh and
I didn’t try
To run, to run, to run
And why didn’t I
I realize, I realized
I couldn’t try
Cuz you held on. You held on tight.
Talking in circles
Over and over how
You ripped out
Every last splinter, every last splinter, ever after
Breaking it open and open and open and open now….how
How do you look like that?
You’re not dressed like a monster
you talk like a savior
Wasn’t just the first time enough?
You’re not dressed like a monster
I look over my shoulder
And why didn’t I
See it coming oh and
I didn’t try
To run, to run, to run
And why didn’t I
I realize, I realized
I couldn’t try
Cuz you held on. You held on tight.
