about sexual assault and the horrid phenomenon that people who experience such atrocities are "asking for it" - disguised under trap beats and reverberated piano
lyrics
i don't usually run, always seem to hide
you skip the formalities, formaldehyde
i feel and i don't feel my body's mine
washing my skin but water trickles inside
i don't usually run, always seem to hide
you skip the formalities, formaldehyde
i feel and i don't feel my body's mine
washing my skin but water trickles in
i can feel the soap under her fingernails
i can feel the way she purses her lips
i can hear the words she wants to say but
maybe she was asking for it
my face contorts as I force laughter
but it turns into a coughing fit
sorry, i'm not feeling too well but
maybe i was asking for it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
i don't usually run, always seem to hide
you skip the formalities, formaldehyde
i feel and i don't feel my body's mine (maybe she was asking for it)
i don't usually run, always seem to hide (no, don't say it)
you skip the formalities, formaldehyde (no, don't say it)
i feel and i don't feel my body's mine (i can hear the words she wants to say but)
maybe she was asking for it (no, don't say it)
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it
no, don't say it (maybe she was, maybe she was)
