"Damsels" lyrics

"Damsels"

Broken and shamed
Slowly go insane
Now I know
I'll never be the same

She woke up, still faded, feelin' degraded
In a crazy situation, had a bit too much libations
But wouldn't give it up, 'cause her momma taught her better
Nonetheless, they made a bet, a bet on who could get her
It's morning now, wake up face down in a pillow soaked in tears
Looks all around, clothes can't be found, the worst of all her fears
Falls to the ground in agony, then crawls back on the bed
Can't erase the sickening twisted feeling of regret (Fuck!)

Stumbles to her feet (No!)
Struggles to stay calm (Ah!)
Tears are falling down her cheek, she needs to call her mom
Feelin' sick and petrified, she knows she lost her voice
No one would be on my side, I don't have a choice

Happiness will come no more, her body filled with hate
Slidin' razors on her skin, hides from her own face
Feels it's way too late for her, absorbed in all the sin
Drowning in her thoughts again, the walls are cavin' in

Broken and shamed
Slowly go insane
And I know
I'll never be the same
Cracks in my heart
Patch up and restart
Now I know
I'm not the one to blame

She wants to be bigger than all of her triggers
And all of the people that took her body
But in the beginning, she wasn't living
She didn't want to, what was the point

It was the single more sickening feeling
It felt like screaming without a voice
Have you ever had someone take every piece of you
Leave you with nothing
No body
No choice

Won't someone please turn this fucking TV off right now
I can't watch this show again
I know how it turns out
Suicidal tendencies, paranoia, drugs
And for some reason what the doc prescribed just wasn't enough
Feelings of disgust as you're labeled a slut
Suffocated by yourself and terrified to be touched
Barely leaves the house 'cause
You've been attached with strings to the fingers of the devil and all the pain he brings

Broken and shamed
Slowly go insane
And I know
I'll never be the same
Cracks in my heart
Patch up and restart
Now I know
I'm not the one to blame

I'm not the only to be beat down by the world
If this is what we live in, I don't want a baby girl
No promise I could keep her safe
No guarantee of that
I lost a part of me that day
And I'll never get it back

Stay into myself
I'll let you in when I recover
I shut out my whole family
Man, I never call my mother
Denied it to myself for years
I finally confessed
Imma try these tears
And fight these fears
I'm not a damsel in distress

Broken and shamed
Slowly go insane
And I know
I'll never be the same
Cracks in my heart
Patch up and restart
Now I know
I'm not the one to blame
