lyrics

she sang “we wear the party all over our bodies and faces” but allows me to speak in wild abstractions
the senseless killings gifts god gives us have no one to love them
it’s the kind of thought that kills you twice on the way down, mystical instant witch, you might forget them but your nightmares they don’t forget about you
how they claw me in my false or foster reflection, is that my reflection in the Damascus blade? no
how they claw me in my foster or false reflection, who am i to defy my Wicken master

“you should call me sometime, i won’t answer but at least i’ll know you care”
“how will you know it was me?”
“what do you think, i aint got caller id?”

guess i should be happy for you, for your success and all that, but your fame ain’t got nothing for us
i supported you kid back when no one else did, you know i waved your flag back when no one else did
i just want things to be the way they used to be, when you only set a place for me

the greek chorus of my skull is choking on their dulcet tones, ten lashes on the ass of anyone who even tries
and heaven’s patients glaring down at us filling your womb with black butterflies
you don’t have to try and steal no nothing from my heart because for you, anything you want, it’s always free free free
texting your freaky fantasies to my phone, black condoms on vanilla ice cream cones
now that i’m not a virgin to you, you’ll never walk alone
far beyond a self abuser shame i live to make you call my name

guess i should be happy for you for your success and all that but your fame ain’t done nothing for us
i was your booster babe back when no one else cared
you know i celebrated you, i hollered for you girl, back when no one else even thought to
i just want things to be the way they used to be, when you only saved a seat for me
come back come back

i’ve been so abused by this black karma, i think i know where i got it from
