Mother and Father

As I lay on the ground calling out for you I knew mother was holding me
Father thou who art in heaven I was a weight you never could carry but I forgive you
I tried so hard to feel you here, desperately, so ashamed, and yet her name rested on my lips
Father thou…
Some of us are not meant to feel the cross holding us close to our hearts, I made my peace and she will take good care of me, she will heal the rapture that you couldn’t heal
Father thou who art in heaven don’t feel sad rejoice with me as nothing changed, Mother thou who giveth life I have finally found my true name in you so I forgive, so I forgive you
(Oh, father I have learned that you were too weak, you could never carry me, oh father no more tears, I will do this on my own, so I forgive you)

Set me I'm on summertime I've had enough of nursery rhymes, they ain't what they used to be at all. Pick me I'm not dirty yet I live I love without regret but you forget yourself when mother calls.
I don't wanna be one of the pod people, you're one of the pod people and I don't wanna see the world like the pod people the worlds full of pod people
Wrong is right and right is wrong and everyone must sing along the emperor's naked we just keep it down If styrophones your strongest hold I'd say your young coz I feel old well the emperor still got such a lovely crown
I want what you want I just want it out of love
We weren't gonna be at all like the Pod People, the world's full of Pod People And I Can't believe now your one of the pod people, the worlds already full of the pod people, yeah?!

Solitude does wonders for your skin, I was never meant to let you in, but you lingered, I said well fine, never knowing days could turn to months. (You are in my mind) (That’s a long time-I’m sorry) (Don’t come with) I would never ask you to come with Me boy you must be crazy I’m not Mona Lisa I’m still searching dark depths of this well (so I am yes I am you can’t smell the things I try to hide deep inside to you I’m never clean) (I still feel you still see you still feel your arms around me it’s not fair cause you are the only one from whom I can’t be clean), you might love the mouth cause you can’t smell nasty things I bury in the dirt, surface as the flood sweeps in to clean Me I’m a piece of work I’m not a work of art Lie on lie on (I’m not sorry, you lied to me, you make me feel so sad, I’m not sorry, you cheated me, you make me feel so bad, you’re the last one I’ll apologize to, you’re so manipulative but you proved to me there’s still some life between my legs) (So I am so sorry it’s the second coming, lie on, eyes are wide open I’m so sorry boy but you proved to me there’s still some life between my legs) My apologies I never meant to tease you and you have every right to be mad but you proved to me There’s still some life left here inside of
Me Boy don’t try to tame me (Girl I I love you, boy I love you), I’m not wild just crazy Me (I hold you so closely and I hold you and I feel you but you’re a pussy boy, just a pussy)I told you to stay away from me cause I’m no good for you and you’re no good for me and I don’t want your soft white hands to snatch my razor I don’t want your soft white pussy hands anywhere near my razor you’ll just cut yourself so bad.

The Other Woman

I can’t stand your fingers on me, they burn and they leave their markings, I thought you’d be long long gone by now If you were to ask me long ago how easy it is to wreck a home if I knew what I know now I’d die Because she had your back and you never had mine your soul must be black to do what you did time and time and time again You made me the other woman you painted my scarlet letter still ready to fill the cracks I made what good does it do to break me, you broke me already long ago the scars that you cut will barely fade Because she… I guess the monsters aren’t always ugly, that’s how they get you in their bed and then the fangs come and then the claws come and then they leave you there for dead I guess it’s nice you had your safety net when She… Was it because I made you come time and time and time again?

Friendly Fire

Who knew that I’d be spilling my guts to my worst enemy who knew that you’d turn on me 180 degrees cause I haven’t kept my soldiers in shape and I didn’t keep my guns loaded anyway I never knew I had to Thanks for changing my mind Thanks for putting me out How’d I end up here? In the trenches? I’m a pascifist, where the hell is my gun? Who knew that friendly fire’s so strong I should have kept my vest on who knew that you just had to shoot off? Shoot at anyone? I thought bullets bounced off me like superman (by now) but you bulls eyed all my soft spots, change of plans; retreat motherfuckers retreat Thanks… How’d I end up here, in your mine field, I thought I was clear, what the fuck is your deal?

It’s been a week since my last confession been working real hard to make an impression on you it’s out of control just like my love for you I need to let go and just be proud of you Father forgive me I have sinned (I’ve sinned forgive me father) father believe me let me in (I am your scarlet daughter) Mother forgive me I love you (loved you since the first day that I saw you) But I am full of evil that I can’t undo. Baby I know you wanted a sinner, gave me a glow I stifled within her I’ve already told you that I’m undeserving I had to let go this Mary’s not worthy Father forgive me… I’ve already told you this body’s not mine to give, communion come hither, I’ll willingly die this death to live I’ll willingly die this death for you to live Unos duo tres quatuor Father forgive me I have sinned (I’ve sinned forgive me father), Mary control me let me in (Black Mary is my mother), Mother please wash my wicked skin (I must be clean or they won’t let me in), but with all my evil markings where do you begin?

Simon says pull ’em down, phase ’em out, and all the little children must follow. Simon you could say most anything no doubt, lead your good little sheep to the gallow.
Ring- a- ring- a- rosie, a pocket full of crap. Will we get out of here, let me get out of here it’s so dark in here, in the sand box that you made me Knowing what I know now I’m still afraid of clowns it’s too dark in here, in this tiny box you made me Fairy friends, fucking frogs, feed the dogs, and all the little kittens must follow Silver spoon fed from the day that we were born and all that they feed me I must swallow Ashes ashes, we all fall down Will we… He pulls your hair and abuses you, just because he loves you, he touches you there and he uses you just because he loves you He can’t help it if you’re so cute Will we… Will we get out of here let me out of here it’s just too dark in here, in the sand box that you made me knowing what I know now I’m still afraid of you, clown, it’s just too dark in here. In this tiny sandbox that you made me.

Stigmata

Somewhere along the road you must have had enough of me I must have seen it coming shut my eyes pretending really trying not to see and somewhere along the road I was left to crawl behind I did my best to scrape my knees believing one day you’d get back your sense of mind
And somewhere along the road I forgot where I was supposed to go But I’m to small to fit into your crowded little universe I fell too fast I failed to break my fall and now I feel my bubble burst The show must go on (your dark’s too strong) I can feel the daylight burn my skin, basking in your light for far too long put out all the flames I had within . I'm not nough to star in your amazing grand majestic show I won’t be there for curtain calls my bags are packed it’s time to face the cold Somewhere along the road I just seized to stand up tall within these safe four walls I’ll be alright I won’t get hurt if I don’t love at all I’m too small to fit into your crowded little universe I fell too fast I failed to break my fall and now I feel my bubble burst. If you want my heart you’ll have to kill me first.
