White Bloom

fuck nme, topshop, indie kids.

Reach down your throat
Expel regret from your vocabulary
Shatter my days
Is there even a limit?
You can never fail if you never set yourself a target.

My subscribing
To your lies
Is expiring.
Now all you want is a bottle and the weekend (fucking vampire)
Commoditised and quantified.
Expel the excess.
Choke on all the firelight you shine on me.
Let the sun cut your arms to shreds.

Baby doll keeps bursting into flames, give me a body, I want it warm.

The snakes are out in force, this is a fucking nest of vipers.
Hatched out of pages and screens with income to burn at the altar.
You think you're special (wrong)
That's just those chemicals
In your blood.
You stupid cunt.
Dumb fuck, I'm dumb founded, the endless capacity for needless disconnecting.
Let me taste you and tell you where you're empty.
You're all empty, your body begging for an end to the hollow

Shake
The lights make you shake.
And you move when you think you should.
Drop
The fucking act, grow up, get living.
Dressing in disguise gets you here.
Living in lies gets you hurt.

Sweat you didn't want to earn tonight.
If you don't know where you are, do you at least realise you want to die?
Should have stayed by my side.

Bite your fingers and tell yourself it's all alright.
Playing the role Baby Doll, and you're doing just fine.
Tears aren't part of this character, hold them in for another time.

And there are no names.
And there are no meanings.
Nothing to make this just a little less of something to be ashamed of.
Nothing to make this anything, nothing to make you feel alive at all.

Baby doll shatters.
Porcelein face, face down on the floor.
Smiles finally crack.
And it all comes out.
And no one cares.
