lyrics

Ave Maria

Within these walls
you want to be God.

With your fist in my mouth, you order me to recite The Lord’s Prayer, so that time would stop
My tongue makes room for You
and the words rumble from my chest
with everything else shrinking.

You grab the ponytail, and solemnly
raise it towards the heavens.
Moments before the cut,
poor girls begging for mercy,
foul-mouthed, corrupted, spoiled.

A moment before the punishment
Ave Maria pierces the cries,
blessed be the fruit of my womb.

In this darkness, your repeated actions have become signs of life,

but there is something intoxicating when you understand:
if this continues for even a moment longer
there will be nothing left.
And then I shall be easy to carry.


Darling, when you're ready with me,
I hope to be cremated in the same coffin with you.

Because in this version I never had the time to notice

I would have been mine forever
if I hadn't always just been
violently yours.
