Ethel Cain - Inbred (KAVARI 'Choir Of Agony' Edit)

i fell in love again
september tends to be so cruel
he says my name and then
blah blah, so embarrassing 
but then he came and leaned in
and asks have i seen how it rains
in the plains
says he could take me there
he’s handsome as the day is long
all the while, inching his way in
like summer stumbling to a fall 
we sink into the carpet 
already wet with november’s rain 


i only bleed for him
mascara running like a champion
he says my name and then
i come so hard, i’d marry him
but then nirvana leaned in
and i lost myself again
to the rain
he asks not if but when 
blah blah, something meaningful
i don’t weave the thread
just run my hands along it
but if i did, then hell
i’d spar with death to skip your name


i can see the end
in the beginning of everything
so i just play pretend
like i don’t watch you leaving 
but you were never there
doctors blame the lead poisoning

v1:

each time that i think of you
i push another through
and recall how the bullet flew
each time that i think of you
i barricade the room
one more wound


v2: 

i was an angel, though plummeting
i watched it get dark
i’m playing it tough
the worst that could happen
is happening to me
another round of shots
for the boys on tv
i was an angel, but they made me leave
with stars in my eyes
crying as i wheel 
as i hit the lake
i prayed it’d be green
it’s all that i need
i deserve it, i think

i loved an angel, and it made me weak

refrain:

i am punished by love
i am punished by love
i am punished by love
i am punished by love

outtro: 

i loved an angel, and it made me weak
i loved an angel, and it made me weak
