Ring Pop (Final Ver.)

Decomposing shell of mine
Will you accept my wrongs?
Cursed you down to the hell and back
But still you mend my holes
Vessel born to bruise and tore
I've seen this once before
Flesh, intestines, bones
Impressions last for only so long

Baby, none of this shit matters
Cut the judgement, kill the pressure

Think you're flawless, you're the hottest
But you're still just a corpse with a name
Think you're gorgeous on the surface
But surfaces crumble away
What's a paint job with no inching?
I'm just hoping you still feel the same, the same (Same)
Though, I'm only a corpse with a name

Corpse

Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two
It's only just a little papercut (Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut)

You could get hit by a car or a train
Or get electrocuted in the rain
You could find a monster in your closet by your sneakers
You could find out the monster's actually your teacher
You could have a dad with a friend named Jack
And when Jack's around, mommy gets slapped
And if you tell mommy that she deserves better
You'll have to cover up your bruises with a sweater

I know your heart is broken
Feels like your world's been stolen
I promise that it could be worse
(It could be worse)
I know you miss those kisses
There are so many fishes
I promise that it could be worse
(It could be worse)

Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two
It's only just a little papercut (Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut...)

Could've been the baby in the carriage
With beautiful blue-eyed parents
If mommy said she never told a lie
Why the fuck do you've big brown eyes?
You could break a hip, you could lose your teeth
You could swallow a spider in your sleep
You could find a razor in your peanut butter sandwich
If you get cut, you can always get a bandage

I know your heart is broken
Feels like your world's been stolen
I promise that it could be worse
(It could be worse)
I know you miss those kisses
There are so many fishes
I promise that it could be worse
(It could be worse)

Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two

(It's only just a little papercut)
(It's only just a little papercut or two)

Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two
It's only just a little papercut

Papercut

There's a girl on a carousel reachin' out her hands
But no one reaches back and she doesn't understand

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Nothing ever stays inside the lines

There's a house in my neighborhood with a perfect lawn
But inside the kitchen there's something deeply wrong

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Nothing ever stays inside the lines

And that house is getting flooded and the walls are falling down
When Melatonin cries she makes everybody drown

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Nothing ever stays inside the lines

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

There's a girl at a party eating cake alone
That boy will be sorry when he picks up the phone

Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Nothing ever stays inside the lines

Her teddy bear is crazy
Grabbed a knife and chased her
She had to kill him, it didn't even phase her

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Nothing ever stays inside the lines

Now the girl's at a funeral, dressed in all black
Someone just died but the girl isn't sad

Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Nothing ever stays inside the lines

I'm in the process of counting sheep
But they're all so bloody
My hushed little baby still makes a peep
There's a ghost in the nursery
I'm haunted even when you're never there
And I'm taunted by your teddy bear
Like it's talkin' and it's asking me
Why you never came home

I missed the shower
I miss your cradle
I miss your carriage
I miscarriaged
I miscarriaged, mis-miscarriaged
And you never came home

Back and forth, back and forth
Move back and forth like a rocking horse
That rocking horse that your daddy bought you
That you never saw goes back and forth
Back and forth, back and forth
Move back and forth like a rocking horse
That rocking horse that your daddy bought you
That you never saw goes back and forth

I'm in the process of apologies
There's a husband who doesn't know that I'm guilty
There's a harsh little secret inside of me
And a ghost in the nursery
Oh, honey, you'll never see your son become a star
Or the money you spent on that box of cigars
And I'm sorry you never got to hand them out

This is for all the horses never given a horseman
Never grew to be Porsches
This is for all divorces all caused by abortions
Babies having babies and babies having abortions

Back and forth, back and forth
Move back and forth like a rocking horse
That rocking horse that your daddy bought you
That you never saw goes back and forth
Back and forth, back and forth
Move back and forth like a rocking horse
That rocking horse that your daddy bought you
That you never saw goes back and forth

Rockin' horse, rockin' horse
Ooh, back and forth
You never came home
Rockin' horse, rockin' horse
Ooh, back and forth
And you never came home

Back and forth, back and forth
Move back and forth like a rocking horse
That rocking horse that your daddy bought you
That you never saw goes back and forth
Back and forth, back and forth
Move back and forth like a rocking horse
That rocking horse that your daddy bought you
That you never saw goes back and forth

Rocking Horse

Hello?
Hi
Who is this?

Hi, my name is Melatonin
I can help you sleep
I know your life is so fucked up, baby
Let's play inside your dreams
You'll always be protected when you hide under the sheets
Z-Z-Z-Z-Z
Just bring your handbook for the recently deceased
Z-Z-Z-Z-Z
Won't you stay for dinner? We're serving lollipops
If you're mean to me I'll make all your teeth rot
I'll pick them up and lock them in my jewelry box
Z-Z-Z-Z

Tell me everything will be alright
I need to get some sleep tonight
Z-Z-Z-Z-Z

The boys are in their suits and ties
And girls commitin' suicide
Luna's on the roof again
I threw my bear out and he's back for revenge, revenge
We used to have the perfect lawn
'Til someone left the faucet on
Now the whole house is flooded
I'll row my boat with my beloved
Z-Z-Z-Z

Tell me everything will be alright
I need to get some sleep tonight
Z-Z

Zzzz

For-ever, forever
Ev-ev, ev-er forever
New Ring Pop
Ev-er, forever
New Ring Pop-Pop
New Ring Pop, pop 

I don't want anyone else to know
What we do whenever we're alone
Make me V.I.P. behind the sofa
All my friends take medicine without a cold
Purple stuff turns everyone to gold
Hate the taste, we mix it with Coca-Cola

When did pattycake turn to bloody knuckles?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

We could stay up, watch adult cartoons
Baby, will you be here soon?
Blowing up the big balloons
So big that they all go pop (They all go pop, they all go pop)
Turn off the lights, let's kiss in the corner
Promise to play house with me forever
Reach for my finger, put on a new Ring Pop (A new Ring Pop, a new Ring Pop)
Put on a new Ring Pop

You only call me when it's getting late
I-I-I saved you a piece of cake
And a bottle on ice with spoiled milk
Luna's on the roof and she's so sad
Pacifiers in her goody bag
Once you jump there's no coming back

We could stay up, watch adult cartoons
Baby, will you be here soon?
Blowing up the big balloons
So big that they all go pop (They all go pop, they all go pop)
Turn off the lights, let's kiss in the corner
Promise to play house with me forever
Reach for my finger, put on a new Ring Pop (A new Ring Pop, a new Ring Pop)
A new Ring Pop
Put on a new Ring Pop
Put on a new Ring Pop
Put on a new Ring Pop

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
When did pattycake turn to bloody knuckles?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

We could stay up, watch adult cartoons
Baby, will you be here soon?
Blowing up the big balloons
So big that they all go pop (They all go pop, they all go pop)
Turn off the lights, let's kiss in the corner
Promise to play house with me forever
Reach for my finger, put on a new Ring Pop (A new Ring Pop, a new Ring Pop)
Put on a new Ring Pop
Put on a new Ring Pop (A new Ring Pop)
Put on a new Ring Pop
Put on a new Ring Pop
A new Ring Pop

Grab my glue, grab my paint
Playing Arts & Crafts today
If you're torn, that's okay
Let me sew you up with string
Googly eyes on your face
So you see things differently

You can't cookie-cut the kind of guy I like
I find him in the gutters, oh
If he's damaged then he's just my type
I like it when they stutter, no

I'm not looking for perfection, I want a challenge
I'm not looking for convention, I want a project

Whoa-whoa-whoa, Arts & Crafts
Whoa-whoa-whoa, fixer-upper romance

Glitter, rhinestones and lace
Let me decorate your face
I'll erase anything you want

You can't cookie-cut the kind of guy I like

Twenty five year old watching Looney Tunes
Waiting for a job as you play with your food
Wondering why your fridge is so full of filth
Cookies filled with bugs and cartons of rotten milk

Stop whining, you're a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what’s going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die
Stop whining, you're a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what’s going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die

Mama, mama, please help me
Still don't know how to brush my teeth
Finding love is hard, you see
So mother, don't you die on me
Rotten milk tastes good to me
Don't know how to buy groceries
This is normal, can't you see?
But mama, you cannot leave me

Mother's on a walker, still tucks you in
Working nine to five, your outline is a sin
You're crying for your bottle of Xanax and tequila
Finding girls on Craigslist like your excreta

Stop whining, you’re a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what’s going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die
Stop whining, you’re a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what's going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die

You say "Mama, mama, please help me
Still don't know how to brush my teeth
Finding love is hard, you see
So mother, don’t you die on me
Rotten milk tastes good to me
Don't know how to buy groceries
This is normal, can't you see?
But mama, you cannot leave me"

Rotten teeth, trick or treat
Mom, make me food to eat
Monsters in the closet
Showers from sink faucets
My girl's super sweet, seventeen
No, that ain't a crime to me
She makes me Hot Pockets while I play with rockets

Mama, mama, please help me
Still don't know how to brush my teeth
Finding love is hard, you see
So mother, don't you die on me
Rotten milk tastes good to me
Don't know how to buy groceries
This is normal, can't you see?
But mama, you cannot leave me

Rotten Milk

You're always gonna say it, but you're never gonna do it
And if we're being honest, man, you really put me through it
I'm gonna breathe it out next time we scream and shout

And I'm not like your other types, you know I'll put up a fight
Not because I want to, just because it ain't right
To cut me with your words and think I won't be hurt

Under the desk
I'm never gonna leave in the mess
If I tell you what I need please address
Don't sweat, don't sweat, don't sweat

And over the top
I know you think I'm being a lot
I'm just tryna find the solution
Don't stress, don't stress, no stressin'

I'm not in the mood to duck your punches
Your mouth moves like running water
Or a fucked up forest fire
(You hide it well beneath your smile)

Future looks so good when you're like taffy
Soft and lovin', gets you goodies
Keep it balanced, keep it groovy

Under the desk
I'm never gonna leave in the mess
If I tell you what I need please address
Don't sweat, don't sweat, don't sweat

And over the top
I know you think I'm being a lot
I'm just tryna find the solution
Don't stress, don't stress, no stressin'

Don't dress it up, tell me the raw and real
I can't mind read how you feel
Open your throat
I'm gonna climb in to catch what you said to me
Your tongue is as, as cutting as, as a machete

Under the desk
It's pretty vulnerable, I confess
You're always safe with me
So don't stress, don't stress, don't stress

And over the top
I know you think I'm being a lot
I'm trying to find the solution, no stressin'

Under the desk
I'm never gonna leave in the mess
If I tell you what I need please address
Don't sweat, don't sweat, don't sweat

And over the top
I know you think I'm being a lot
I'm just tryna find the solution
Don't stress, don't stress, don't stress

I'm not in the mood to duck your punches
Your mouth moves like running water
Or a fucked up forest fire
(You hide it well beneath your smile)

Future looks so good when you're like taffy
Soft and lovin', gets you goodies
Keep it balanced, keep it groovy

Under The Desk

Everybody seems to want the gold
You know that's what they're after
All they hear is "Kid, don't break the mold
Do as you're told, you'll win much faster"

Won't kiss your ass just to go fast
Don't put me in that box 'cause I'll just set it on fire
You only give grace 'cause you can't create
Does it make you feel important to judge where we lay?

Don't need your trophy to know my worth (No, no)
Know my worth
Your games won't work
Don't need your trophy to know my worth (No, no)
Know my worth (No, no)

Staying up at night with Adderall
You call that pill your best friend
You have lost your interest to grow
Don't go jump off the deep end

Won't kiss your ass just to go fast
Don't put me in that box 'cause I'll just set it on fire
You only give grace 'cause you can't create
Does it make you feel important to judge where we lay?

Don't need your trophy to know my worth (No, no)
Know my worth
Your games won't work
Don't need your trophy to know my worth (No, no)
Know my worth (Oh, no)

Are you done searching for glittery gold on your shelf?
Baby stop trying to fit a standard made by somebody else

Don't need your trophy to know my worth (No, no)
Know my worth
Your games won't work
Don't need your trophy to know my worth (No, no)
Know my worth (No, no)
