You want to suffer
and show me you’re angry
fight with your fists up
or call for you mommy
You want to suffer
and show me you’re angry.
Spend time alone,
find a stick in the basement.
Drink water and gold dust
and live on impatience.
Slaughtered for weakness
electric like static.
Slaughtered, you’re weak
there’s no need to speak.
You chang your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You step on the sparks
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
I shouldn’t be any great inspiration,
I never got in your way
I should never have to chase you
I was the one who got away.
If you could feel the pain
your confusion has caused me
You would have stopped before you spoke.
Listening to lies
the pain doesn’t suit me.
The gift that you gave me
I put it away.
I couldn’t look at it
it made me think of you.
You get in the way.
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You step on the sparks
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
Spend time alone,
find a stick in the basement
Drink water and gold dust
and die of impatience.
Electric like static,
and no need to speak.
It’s not right, but it’s not wrong.
So I wrote this song.
I wrote this song
is that what you want.
You got what you want
does it make you feel better?
With a smirk on your face
and a gun at my head,
You come to my place and ask to be fed.
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You step on the sparks
You change your shoelaces
I light firecrackers
You get in the way
You get in the way
You want to suffer
and show me you’re angry
Fight with your fists up
or call for your mommy
You want to suffer
and show me you’re angry
