lyrics
You say you never knew my name
No, you just didn't like the taste when you'd say it
You tell me that you knew my game before I played it.
I'm a body and you are a body bag
A perfect love or a perfect convenience?
Or maybe I just didn't know what it meant to mean it?
But I used to feel the summer in my dirty, cracked feet
"Oh god, don't let those touch my sheets".
You're biting your tongue
Open your mouth, show me what I've become
You said "You'll never be someone that I respect"
I'll be the last of all your regrets.
You feel a sting in your lungs when you breathe?
Say you'll never change, say you'll never leave.
And take me to the back room of your house
I won't give you anything real of myself
But we'll dive back into old habits
Maybe we'll die right here on the mattress.
You're biting my head off
Open your mouth, show me what I deserve
I know I didn't break all my bones to build a home
I guess that's what you'd prefer.
Did I learn to be almost everything that you wanted?
When you think of me, think of everything you've forgotten.

Folk-Punk?! What! Used to love them to the point where I embraced Markwell's self-destructiveness, self-pity, contempt towards her friends, and delusions of grandeur. Do you know why? she had the soul, genius, emotional whimsy and dare to meet us in a world where getting a dog tattoo is "too ambitious," James Joyce is an insult, and whoever says "no" to romantic advances gets crushed in the end. Let's just say, she has more bones to pick with the males than any other artist I'm aware of. OQ
