take my teardrop, drop my fear at the foot of the bed. drop my head down on the pillow above. drop dead, take your aim and fire soldier. wake up and smell the fire soldier. feel the rage burn deep in your chest soldier. see burning buildings, smell the gunpowder, dead bodies, drop dead take your aim and fire, soldier. sweltering heat, quick retreat, blood on the street. my young army boy, grow up to be a soldier. grow up or be a soldier. hear the screaming of the children, soldier, the schoolzone is a warzone, soldier. drop dead at my kings feet, screaming. drop dead, take aim and fire soldier.

he spits with his fists, bruising with his words. casual warfare, the battleground is his bedroom. 'i love yous' met with a smile that doesnt reach the eyes. the sting of his palm or the bite of his lips, preferable to sickly sweetness. i love you means a bad time for you and me. spreading my legs like moses parted the sea, paving the way for your control. swallowing my medication like the silence, sugarpills for your sweet tooth.

silence spills, tongue and teeth gnaw into freezerburnt heart. im forcefed spoiled grapes the vines grew wrapped around the trigger, it was only a matter of time. gemstones fall in place of tears to fit perfectly around your collar, you look beautiful in blue. dress up to tear me down, the theme for tonight is the green look in my eye, i hope youre having a good time.

my chest feels like a water balloon being squeezed in the uncaring hands of my childhood innocence, the day is sticky and hot, hot and bothered and under the collar, slipping your hands up my disney princess nightgown. i still feel sick everytime i go to the bathroom, morning sickness before puberty who haunts more ghosts or the hands from my past? hot skin, sweaty and sticky, miserable in the summer heat. miserable in my skin, hands on me hands grabbing pulling punching, sticky and hot and under my collar buttoning it up tight, nothing sneaks past my watch. watching you carefully, yes sir no sir right away how is it that a flute tames a serpent? sneaking away. climbing out of your coffin but the stain is left on my brain like a coffee ring on the living room table shouldve used a coaster. sleeping on speakers now all thats left in my head is a forgotten memory. dreaming in VHS the tape keeps skipping my favorite part.

sink your porcelan teeth into me baby, leave a reminder to never trust again. shattered trust at our feet, wounds healing with glass shards unremoved. the art of keeping up with a lie, bitter tongue spits faster than the truth. playing empathy like a game of chess. isnt it funny how the only time i feel like this is when were apart??

no vice could tempt the grasp i have on this bloody religion. offering up everything, flesh soul and tears drip down me, drowning in blood and tears and soul. every day, night offering up every drop of me i hope i taste stingingly sweet. slicing open my soul, flesh, tears shaking in fear, anxious for the sound of metal hitting floor waiting for the other pin to drop. dropping so low every night, soul and flesh drop below a razor for inspection lets see what they find. sickness is what they find. sick of this for you of you i am sick. sickeningly sweet, honey coated heartbreak. im exactly what you need let me cure your sweet tooth, smooth and sweet and all you desire, i desire, youre sitting alone and so am i. chasing you, predator and prey fox and rabbit seal and fish lion and gazell. sweet and sharp and sick, throw me up or throw me out.
