Pesticides
Jazmin Bean
Oh, I
My bones are getting thinner
I feel like I’m running it all down
Running my smile into the ground
I’m decaying like an apple
And soon I will go brown
Shrivel up and carry out
And being so cold and so far
I do not know just where you are
The birds and worms will eat me up
When I have reached my final
I’m growing into something new
There’s nothing more that I could do
You were hungry I gave you food
There’s nothing more that I could do
I’m growing into something fresh
My body’s rotten filled with pests
This feelings so raw it feels like flesh
(I don’t see you anymore)
And I’m ripped from my toes up to my skull
And I don’t see you anymore
Where’s a and e when I need it
Of course there’s oxygen when I can breathe it
Hate it all until it’s gone
And then we’re begging on our knees for it
Say thank you and please for it
Doing all we can for it
Pray it and demand for it
I can’t believe it
I really can’t believe it
It’s like the world is teasing me
It’s like running from both my-
(I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care)
(The extra fucking mile!)
(I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care)
(The extra fucking mile!)
I’m growing into something new
There’s nothing more that I could do
You were hungry I gave you food
There’s nothing more that I could do
I’m growing into something fresh
My body’s rotten filled with pests
This feelings so raw it feels like flesh
