"The Executioner" lyrics

"The Executioner"

I had a dream I was some kind of executioner
My ex-lover finally meets his fate
He said "spare me and I'll love, love, love you forever"
So I spared him, and he ghosted the next day

I should've seen it coming
All we ever were was nothing
I paid two grand for some medium
To take my sweaty hand and say
"He's not the one"

And you might think that's laughable
God help me, I am female
Just say I'm more than touchable
God help me, I am female

And I studied politics to get my fix of praise from you
It sure was fleeting, but the highs felt nice
And the world was ever-daunting, it was haunting, 'cause it slaughtered me
No, I'm a good girl, and an even better wife

I should've seen it coming
My shrill voice amounts to nothing
I show skin on social media
Like it's the tax to pay for the space I take up
But is it enough?
Is it enough?
Am I enough?

And you might think that's laughable
God help me, I am female
Just say I'm more than touchable
God help me, I am female

What can I do?
It's all I know
What can I do?
It's all I know
What can I do?
It's all I know
What can I do?
It's all I know
What can I do?
It's all I know
What can I do?
It's all I know

What can I do?
It's all I know
You coerced me into kindness
That's all I'll ever know
