strapped down and tortured

by Olivia Weinkein

i couldn't be bothered
i cried all day and into the night
i couldn't be bothered
i knew you were not coming back

and it's alright
now.
i'm alright
now.

and you don't have to bother
to look for me inside of here
you don't have to bother

i'm strapped too tight in this
electric chair

and it doesn't have to hurt you
if you can keep yourself from standing
tooclose
it doesn't have to hurt you
even if this is not what you chose

and why even bother
when in a blink it can all fall apart
and why did i even bother
i gave my legs for you to break so
why my heart
