All this tape wrapped around my chest keeps my heart from the gutter, but I fear I'm next. He grabbed my crotch, so I bit his arm... dear god I hope I left a scar.

I'm just waiting for it to end.

Crazy lives in my hometown. I didn't want to leave but I'm ready now. He called me a dyke then he raised his fist. Pain's so much easier than fearing it.

I'm just waiting for it to end.

When the time comes. You can not falter. You just have to fucking run. When the time comes, you can not flinch. Know all your exits, and know it's ok just to fucking run.

I'm just waiting for it to end.

In November 2012 Manzilla was held at gunpoint by a man in a child-sized godzilla costume. Manzilla, $42 poorer, went home, re-assessed her life, quit her NYC job, purchased a keyboard, and began recording music. She now lives in New Orleans, soaking up soul and peeing into jars.
