Verse:
Never feel too good in crowds,
With folks around
When they're playing

The anthems of rape culture loud,
Crude and proud
Creatures baying

All I've ever done is hide
From our times
When you're near me

Honey, when you kill the lights
And kiss my eyes
I feel like a person for a moment of my life

Verse 2:
There are questions I can't ask
Now at last
The worst is over

See the way you hold yourself
Reel against
Your body's borders

I know that you hate this place
Not a trace
Of me would argue

Honey, we should run away
Oh someday
Our baby and her momma
And the damaged love she make
