how dare you mete out perdition why bear my name in the back of your mouth who bade you stand and deliver who made you wholly ungrateful and proud i wear my best stand at the edge put forth my best foot and tumble to the ground let your shit cake up my gown won't let it shake up my crown i wipe the sweat from my brow where is the shame? what is the floor? who does it help? what is the lowest that you've ever felt? what are the harshest cards you've been dealt? i drew the darkest parts squinting staring at nothing but glistening fragments like sand in the oven i'd threaten to knock out your teeth if i didn't know i'd just be hitting myself all over again i watched your arms in the harvest i watched your heat billow cold air to clouds i took your scythe to the garden i swung your sledge to the ground yours paved in gold mine in brown you waved your pitchfork around i just want something to eat you made a show in the town while i made bread from your wheat you hate the fox on the grounds like you hate the hunger you feel your eyes are sunk into puddles you cannot see what is real you hold your light to the window only your face is revealed you see my night from a distance you fear the space in the trees you bring the spoon to your mouth while you feel the snow falling down but i wipe the sweat from my brow i know you wish you knew me i know you wish you knew me you don't know me you don't know me at all i know you wish you knew me you don't know me at all you don't know me

butterflies this is everything i'm made for i'm your sacrifice i am chained onto the table i can see the signs all the places you can take me make me scream and cry feel the pain long as i'm able i can't see you clearly anymore other senses ruling over me more and more looking at you with parts i've never used before can you feel my heartbeat, heartbeat feel my heartbeat, heartbeat can you feel my heartbeat, heartbeat feel my heartbeat, heartbeat it pours into me all this overwhelming feeling test my scaffolding break me with angelic visions this is maddening help me hold it going deeper lungs expanding sparks explode into the ether i feel tendrils melting and breaking through tear me inside out and turn my one into two maybe then this light won't break out and flood the room can you feel my heartbeat, heartbeat feel my heartbeat, heartbeat can you feel my heartbeat, heartbeat feel my heartbeat, heartbeat
