MAKE ME
Wearing a skirt with shorts underneath
Catcallers can't tell the difference
Closer inspection they'd see I'm a fraud
Then I'd be in some real deep shit
Out late again at this point it's early
Blasting music into my ears
Nervously avoiding eye contact with strangers
So scared I'm running from my own fucking shadow
Forget about the past
Handle the pain
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
To stuff it down until it hurts
Please don't tell me
I don't want to die
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
To hide who you are
You can't "make me"
Smile and smirk and playfully flirt
Innocent actions shouldn't leave scars
Kiss me harshly pull the air from my lungs
Silence me then let my corpse fall to the ground
Get up to speed with the chaos around you
If you don't your grave will be right next to mine
The matter at hand isn't worth the discussion
It's more important that you're not upset
Forget about the past
Handle the pain
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
To stuff it down until it hurts
Please don't tell me
I don't want to die
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
To hide who you are
You can't make me
Shut up
I've heard this joke before
The one where I call and beg for more
The set up changes whenever you tell it
But the punchline is my stomach emptying out on the floor
Silence won't suit me like it used to before
Cuz I'm a ticking time bomb and I'm gonna explode
You sparked the fuse get ready for the blast
Your ears are gonna bleed from what I'm gonna say
Make me
Make me
Make me!
Make me!
MAKE ME
MAKE ME
MAKE ME!
MAKE ME!
Forget about the past
Handle the pain
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
To stuff it down until it hurts
Please don't tell me
I don't want to die
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
Cracking bottles
You know
Forget about the past
Handle the pain
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
To stuff it down until it hurts
Please don't tell me
I don't want to die
Alone
Cracking bottles
You know what it's like
To hide who you are
You can't make me
Whole
Hide who you are
You can't make me
Whole
Hide who you are
You can't make me
Whole
Hide who you are
You can't make me
Whole
