i give and i give and i give
myself away
in the palm of your hand
tell me “what do i weigh”
the blind lead the blind
and we’re eye for an eye
you crucify me, i pacify (you)
you sing me your alibi 

i give everything i have
to people who won’t give that back
i am nothing but a crutch
for your broken-hearted touch
all i want is someone who will stay
all i need is someone who will

Handicap

lyrics, production, + vocals by yaryn choi

tell me all about the shame
the thoughts that echo in your brain
but do you ever try to make ‘em drown, babe?
can you ever lay your head down?

oh you claim the stars aligned
i feel shivers down my spine
but say it one more time
(you're mine)

list off all the things i lack
i’ll rewind and play it back
your love is daggers in my back

can you just put it on ice 
maybe we can stitch it together
when you’re feeling nice
when you’re not crying thunder
can you just put it on ice
we can stitch it together
when i’m breathing better
n all your words aren’t so fucking bitter babe

you thrive on my vulnerability
swallowed in narcissism, donating your pity
but do you ever recognise your fault? 
or do you need a mirror to assault?

oh your touch is sharp as knives
but i sit and wonder why
i can’t keep my head screwed on tight
(decapitate)

list off all the things i lack
i’ll rewind and play it back
your love is daggers in my back

can you just put it on ice 
maybe we can stitch it together
when you’re feeling nice
when you’re not crying thunder
can you just put it on ice
we can stitch it together
when i’m breathing better
n all your words aren’t so fucking bitter babe

i keep seeing red lilies blossoming out of my skin
and it took a while
but i realised that they grow where there are traces of you
i don’t know whether they’re tending to the sting that your hands left
or if they’re there to remind me that you were more tainted than i thought you were

i’m still not really sure

but i guess we’ll find out

McQueen

with you
it doesn’t matter
how high i get
cos you pull me down
to where it hurts again

with you
it’s not right
unless
it hurts

if i had a penny
for every time
i bit my lip
and i held it inside

i could probably
pay for you…

…to get some help
and cry it out
and get to the bottom
of why you can’t help
but to hurt me
cos you are hurting inside

if i had a penny
for every time
i bit my lip
and held it inside

i could probably pay for…

…someone to take me 
far away
somewhere i feel like
i’m floating away
the pictures can’t
keep me tethered
to you from up there

cos i’m so tired
of working so hard
to get better
to have it all
come crumbling down
just cos you can’t relax

i’m tired of my daddy issues
i’m tired of my daddy issues
i’m tired of all my daddy issues
