My heart is heavy, palms are sweaty and I’m hesitating in the corner

Death (DEMO)

Keep your lips sealed
Keep your, keep your lips sealed
Keep your lips sealed
Keep your, hush child, hush child
Keep your lips sealed
Keep your, keep your lips sealed
Keep your lips sealed
Keep your, hush child, hush child

There's a boy in the classroom
Always does what he's asked to
Following the class rules
And now he's in the bathroom
With the sleeves pulled down
And the zipper pulled high
Kids snickerin' in the hallway
Dealing with it all day, fuck what they all say
I know why you're different, different
I know what goes down inside your kitchen, kitchen

I know you've been hiding something
Mama tell you you should hush it (hush it)
I know why you're distant, distant
I know what goes down inside your kitchen, kitchen

Hush child, hush child
Seal up them loose lips
I know you're craving another glue stick
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?
Don't speak, don't speak
Cover up your bruises
That's what they say when they feed you a glue stick
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?

Keep your lips sealed
Keep your, keep your lips sealed
Keep your lips sealed
Keep your, hush child, hush child
Keep your lips sealed
Keep your, keep your lips sealed
Keep your lips sealed
Hush child

You know you don't have to
Be so quiet when someone asks you
While you're in the bathroom
Why your sleeves pulled down
And the zipper pulled high

I know you've been hiding something
Mama tell you you should hush it (hush it)
I know why you're distant, distant
I know what goes down inside your kitchen, kitchen

Hush child, hush child
Seal up them loose lips
I know you're craving another glue stick
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?
Don't speak, don't speak
Cover up your bruises
That's what they say when they feed you a glue stick
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?

Keep your lips sealed
(Hmm-hmm)
Hush child, hush child
Keep your lips sealed
(Hmm-hmm)
(Hush child)
Keep your lips sealed
Keep-keep your lips sealed
Keep your lips sealed
Keep your lips sealed (Hush child, hush child)
Keep your lips sealed
Keep-keep your lips sealed
(Hush child)

Hush child, hush child
Seal up them loose lips
I know you're craving another glue stick
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?
Don't speak, don't speak
Cover up your bruises
That's what they say when they feed you a glue stick
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?

Hush child (Hush child)
Hush child (Hush child, hush child)
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?
Don't speak, don't speak
Cover up your bruises
That's what they say when they feed you a glue stick
Why is it so hard to let the truth come out?

Hush child, hush child
Seal up them loose lips, hmm-hmm
I know you're craving another glue stick, hmm

Glue Stick

Melanie Martinez - Emerald

The fish always sleep in, they swim in piles like the sheep
And the shepherd's drunk off the feeling
Of power, scheming and stealing
I got a shell that's protective, I swim alone, it's the best thing
My aura's been through finessing, I don't need to impress you
My value's too high, you think you can afford it?
When your water's so dry and you're lacking abundance
I'm not talking 'bout your pockets, yeah, your wallet means nothing
I'm talkin' spiritual wealth, how did your heart get so hardened?

Pearl in a sea full of clown fish
Iridescent when I shine 'cause I'm that bitch
Ballin' and we stay baroque, oh-oh
Baby, I'm born from the inner protection
Crystallized carefully to perfection
Hold me to your chest so close

Not just expensive but patient, it took me years to create it
Something so ostentatious that Judas found me allegious
Cover them with my graciousness, they wound me, I'm healing it
And fuck it, I heal them too, what mother of pearl would do
Pay respects to my process, I'm the oyster, the farmer
I'm the pearl that is harvested, polished, pampered and promised
Then I'm sold as a product to all the jewelry shoppers
The cliché couples who want me to fix all their problems

Pearl in a sea full of clown fish
Iridescent when I shine 'cause I'm that bitch
Ballin' and we stay baroque, oh-oh
Baby, I'm born from the inner protection
Crystallized carefully to perfection
Hold me to your chest so close

Mother of Pearl

I make them panic
It's satanic how I bend my body
Yeah, you can look but you can't touch
I'm not just anybody
Caught in the haze and hypnotized
And you're too thirsty
Open your view and you will find, stop searching

Eyes on the prize
Thought the cherry would be better than the pie
You like that, like that, that, like that
That's your demise
Yeah, you hold me like you're rushing to my thighs
Too fast, too fast, fast, too fast

But your focus is empty
Tunnel vision under me
Honeysuckle and fresh meat
But I'm more than that, more than that
Playing house to distract me
Boy, you're not good at acting
It's obvious what you're after
And I'm more than that, more than that
And I'm more than that, more than that

They always hustle for the pussy
So they'll never get it
I make them tumble down the hill
They climbed, I don't regret it
I saw the trick fall out your sleeve
And I'm so certain
You hold me 'til I don't believe
And it ain't working

Eyes on the prize
Thought the cherry would be better than the pie
You like that, like that, that, like that
That's your demise
Yeah, you hold me like you're rushing to my thighs
Too fast, too fast, fast, too fast

But your focus is empty
Tunnel vision under me
Honeysuckle and fresh meat
But I'm more than that, more than that
Playing house to distract me
Boy, you're not good at acting
It's obvious what you're after
And I'm more than that, more than that
And I'm more than that, more than that

Crossing my heart, I'd rather die (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Than be the needle in your eye (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Show me how far obsession goes (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Could've been more, now we'll never know

Tunnel Vision

She had been taken away from her family
Away from the only place that she had felt safe in
Away from the ones she loved
Inside a basement, he watches her moves and her pacing
She tries to find a door to escape him
But she can't find any doors

Who cares if she don't look like you?
Karma will come back to eat you
Why does she have to be white to
Be seen as a fucking equal?

You erase her
The radio, news and thе paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Wеll, later's too late
Go fucking save her

Erase her, erase her

She hears him walking
She's praying the police come knocking
Assuming that they're all already plotting
To save her from dying young

Put her on the television
Don't let all these girls stay missing
Stop picking your favorite faces
This ain't no casting submission

You erase her
The radio, news and the paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Well, later's too late
Go fucking save her

She's crying, I wish I could pull her out of the man's house
But I'm just me, I'm no police
I'm not qualified to go searching
But I would be if I were in your shoes

But you erase her
The radio, news and the paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Well, later's too late
Go fucking save her
You erase her
The radio, news and the paper
You say, you say "Maybe later"
Well, later's too late
Go fucking save her

Erase her, erase her
Erase her, erase her

Erase Her
