I forgot to thank you for the blood you shed,

Are you just dense or so fuckin’ inbred

you think that all is forgiven and all is forgotten?

But forgive them of nothing, despite their impunity.



when monstrous children get treated so sweetly.

Violence is praised, the decision cemented,

they seem like nice kids.

that doesn’t change what they did.



That’s when they lock up an innocent victim.

The only thing that’s more broken than her spirit is the system.

They lock up femininity, infected with the illusion that choice is free.



You made your bed

when you were born in your bones,

so lay back, sweetheart,

in a body you only sometimes own.

Lay back upon cold concrete floors

and rest your drunken soul.

What more could a lady ask for

than to be treated like a hole?



when monstrous children get treated so sweetly.

Standing before you in suit and tie,

don’t they just look so nice? (so nice)

“I guess their remorse will suffice.” (will suffice)



That’s when they lock up...

That's when they lock up your bones,

That's when they lock up...

femininity, infected with the illusion that choice, choice is...



[Jadea Kelly:]

Freedom is delicate,

cracking under abject catastrophe.

Stronger than his prison bars

are the bars around her memory.

It’s irrelevant,

her relation to me.

No one is innocent if they go free.

No one is innocent if they go free.

When we hand raise the beast,

and the beast runs wild,

we must speak of our own involvement

in the rape of a child.



It’s irrelevant,

her relation to me.

No one is innocent if they go free.

No one is innocent if they go free.

That’s when they lock up...

That's when they lock up your bones,

That's when they lock up...

femininity, infected with the illusion that choice, choice is...

[J.K.] That’s when they lock up...

[J.K.] That's when they lock up your bones,
