Verse 1

The white walls they scare me, the blank space on my knees

I stare at the ceiling while t

rying to get you to agree

This feeling is dehumanizing, we

're all wondering why

Everything is moving

west and the wind is blowing

south

Chorus

I'm picking petals with my teeth, don't know what I'm supposed to think about it

Trying anything, I'll co

nsume thе bottle from the rabbit

Nevеr met him once, so I give him all my trust when he says, "follo

w me"

To where my

mom wouldn't want me to b

Verse 2

And I'm stuck o

n you, but I can't stay here anymore

I don't get you, but I get why you a

re the way you are

And when I needed you, you thought best was to leave

But when you needed help, I

told you to call me

And baby, you begged me to stay by your side

But when we're done fucking, yo

u're not satisfied

And you know, you can't hunt with an unloaded gun

But you shoot and you fire,

and you hit more than once

Like a voice breaking glass, you break through my skin

'Cause when you pull the trigger,

you know you won't miss

Chorus

I'm picking petals with my teeth, don't know what I'm supposed to think about it

Trying anything, I'll co

nsume thе bottle from the rabbit

Nevеr met him once, so I give him all my trust when he says, "follo

w me"

To where my

mom wouldn't want me to b

Bridge

And it g

oes over again, over again, over again, over again, oh

It's over again, over again, ov

er again, over again

We go over again, over again, over again, over again,

no, oh

Verse 3

And I would bur

n to feel you touching me, I'd burn to feel you more

I don't want this, I don't want you

This is nothing I prayed for

And the bu

rn turned to anger, and the anger turned to bleed

I'm forever a sinner while I t

ry to stay clean

And you know that you like what you're doing to me

'Cause it makes you feel good b

ut you're just so dirty

Chorus

I'm picking petals with my teeth, don't know what I'm supposed to think about it

Trying anything, I'll co

nsume thе bottle from the rabbit
