[cainiverous]

… Swollen up with envy

Says I'm his favorite

Yeah, I fucking better be

Drifting just right out of sight

Show me where it hurts and I'll

Lick it better

In the red light

Lyrics - Ethel Cain - Unpunishable

[cainiverous]

You know and I know it’s just how it goes

We both get too close ’til we fucking explode

And I hope they bury me right next to you....

Lyrics - Homecoming - Ethel Cain

[cainiverous]

I still kick rocks when the walking is good

And pretend at the chain link that I am the wood

As I'm leaning my head back

Saying, "Take me, I ain't gonna scream"

Yet here I am, empty

Watching love of mine leave...

Lyrics - Amber waves - Ethel Cain

[cainiverous]

You poor thing

Sweet, mourning lamb

There's nothing you can do

It's already been done

What fear a man like you brings upon a woman like me

Please, don't look at me

I can see it in your eyes, he keeps looking at me

Tell me, what have you done?

Lyrics - Ptolemaea - Ethel Cain

[cainiverous]

But I still call home that house in Nebraska

Where we found each other on a dirty mattress on the second floor

(Where I needed you, and I need you still)

Where the world was empty, save you and I

Where you came and I laughed, and you left and I cried

Where you told me even if we died tonight, that I'd die yours....

Lyrics - House in Nebraska - Ethel Cain

[cainiverous]

We all know how it goes

The more it hurts, the less it shows

But I still feel like they all know, and that's why I can never go back home

And I spend my life watching it go by from the sidelines

And God, I've tried, but I think it's about time I put up a fight

Lyrics - Sun bleached flies - Ethel Cain

[cainiverous]

[cainiverous]

In decay and life...

[cainiverous]

I owe you a black eye and two kisses

Tell me when you wanna come and get em...

[cainiverous]

It was a highway to nowhere, and we rode it

Cold car with no gas and we chose it

Soft bodies playing in the street

Our kids will grow up with half as much

Trying to build something out of dust

Finding out too late what they need

Lyrics - God's country - Ethel Cain

[cainiverous]

So take me down to the river

And bathe me clean

Put me on the back of your white horse to ride

All the way to the chapel, let you wash all over me...

Lyrics - Ethel Cain - Family Tree

[cainiverous]

You know, I still wait at the edge of town

Praying straight to God that maybe you'll come back around...

Lyrics - Ethel Cain - A House in Nebraska

[cainiverous]

There i found me in a long, long wood

Astray, midway of mortal life

Witness to such agony

But there, before the grace of god go i

I want to know love

I want to know what it feels like

Lyrics - Onanist - Ethel Cain

[cainiverous]

Something has been taken

From deep inside of me

A secret I've kept locked away

No one can ever see

Wounds so deep they never show

They never go away

Like moving pictures in my head

For years and years they've played

Lyrics - Easier to run - Linkin Park

[cainiverous]

And you said, "Hey, do you wanna see the West with me?

'Cause love's out there and I can't leave it be"

And I said, "Honey, love's never meant much to me

But I'll come with you if you're sure it's what you need"

Lyrics - Ethel Cain - Thoroughfare

[cainiverous]

These dirt roads are empty

The ones we paved ourselves...

Lyrics - Ethel Cain - House in Nebraska

[cainiverous]

I'd hold the gun if you asked me to

But if you loved me the way you say you do

Would you ask me to

Lyrics : Western Nights - Ethel Cain
