Without you
Who could I be
Who am I
Without hurting

Give it time
And no apologies
Passing time
Out of my body

You want me sad
You want me alone
I give you my name
And body to take from
I’ll be the bad one
And you won’t have to sacrifice at all
Welcome to the hurting ritual
Welcome to the hurting ritual

I’ll abuse
Myself in your place
Just for you
I forfeit all of my boundaries

Is it always pain
In the place of love
Only escaping
In party drugs

You want me sad
You want me alone
I give you my name
And body to take from
I’ll be the bad one
And you won’t have to sacrifice at all
Welcome to the hurting ritual
Welcome to the hurting ritual


If it's a choice between us
And surviving
I choose me
I choose me

If it’s a choice between us
And surviving
I choooooose me

 
You want me dead
You want me at home
You want to give me all of my worth
You want the ritual
And you want it to hurt

You want me scared
You want me confused
You want to keep me quiet about the abuse
You want the ritual
And you want it to hurt
You want to be the one with all the power

You want me sad
You want me alone
I give you my name
And body to take from
I’ll be the bad one
And you won’t have to sacrifice at all
Welcome to the hurting ritual
Welcome to the hurting ritual
Welcome to the hurting ritual
Welcome to the hurting ritual
Welcome to the hurting ritual
Welcome to the hurting ritual

The Hurting Ritual (Demo)

It’s not easy for a sex toy 
It never lives up to the fantasy 
But when it does I feel let down 
Dirty girl, do you feel lonely? 
  
Dirty girls don’t complain 
You know for love we’d do anything 
And it doesn’t happen all at once 
But it’s never good enough 
  
Don’t be taken for a fool 
Pineapples and a cosmopolitan 
Being cold and being cruel 
You know we're born for pleasing men 
  
Dirty girls don’t complain 
You know for love we’d do anything 
And it doesn’t happen all at once 
But it’s never good enough 
  
We want liberation 
This body’s a curse 
If I became a man 
What is my anger worth? 
  
Dirty girls don’t complain 
You know for love we’d do anything 
And it doesn’t happen all at once 
But it’s never good enough

Strange Weather (Cover)

Die With You (Beyonce Cover)

I grew so fond of distance
I started dating roads
I laid with wet cement
I bleached white my clothes

I made myself your mistress
Knowing you loved another
You have someone who loves you
But Can I still come over
Can I Still come over 
Can I still come over

Sinking into sheets
That are already warm
With sweat from sweeter skin
Than the skin that I have on

Swallowed by your bedroom
Mattress, made of quicksand
So many stolen kisses
I tried chopping off my hands

My eyes became an ocean
My throat, a waterfall
I started chipping teeth
from smiling through it all

I made myself your mistress
knowing you loved another
you have someone who loves you
But Can I still come over
Can I still come over
Can I still come over

Sinking into sheets
That are already warm
With sweat from sweeter skin
Than the skin that I have on

I would have held you sober
I'd love you with the lights on
But it's a foolish mistress
who thinks that she's the only one

You know, I can't remember
The last time this felt like love
Have we just been pretending
is that what everybody does

I made myself you mistress
knowing you loved another
you have someone who loves you….

Sinking into sheets
That are already warm
With sweat from sweeter skin
Than the skin I have on

Sweeter Skin

Lyrics

Dark eyes haunt my dreams
I've been talking in my sleep
Confessing to the sins 
Your bright eyes wouldn't see through

I don't like to tell
About the dark I know so well
Who knew all these white lies 
Would slip out in the night time

Baby, can't you see
The darkness, how it creeps
The secrets I can't keep
When you're lying next to me

Everybody knows
How hard it is to sleep alone
I always share my bed
With the shadows inside my head

There's a man with dark eyes
He takes me in the late nights
There's so much time in bed
But I get such little sleep

Baby, can't you see
The darkness, how it creeps
The secrets I can't keep
When you're lying next to me

I've got myself a bad neck
It's difficult to stand erect
It's weighing on my spine
this heavy head of mine

Dark eyes haunt my dreams
I've been talking in my sleep
Confessing to the sins 
Your bright eyes wouldn't see through

Baby, can't you see
The darkness, how it creeps
The secrets I can't keep
When you're lying next to me

Dark Eyes

Me and my tough skin
Craving how you twist the blade
The envy of a pitted fruit
The way I rot
Confusing  love  for pain

I turn to mush in your hands
The bruises always seem to heal
Will you still want me when
(Will you still want me when)
I'm left empty like an orange peel

Come grab ahold and squeeze
Teach me about men of your kind
The ones who cut you open
Just to see what's inside

Like a line of ants
Marching toward a feast
You take me bit by bit
(You take me bit by bit)
Tearing me piece by piece

Where did you learn to devour?
Where did you learn to dispose?
I always leave you stripped down
(I always leave you stripped down)
I always leave you exposed
(I always leave you exposed)

Come grab ahold and squeeze
Teach me about men of your kind
The ones who cut you open
Just to see what's inside 

Like a host of maggots
My body laid to waste
The intoxicating habit
Of spoiling sweetness upon being tasted

Come grab ahold and squeeze
Teach me about men of your kind
The ones who cut you open
(The ones who cut you open)
Just to see what's inside 

Come grab ahold and squeeze
Teach me about men of your kind
The ones who cut you open
(The ones who cut you open)
And leave you empty like an orange rind

Didn't anybody ever teach you not to play with your food
