    "they said I am an abomination, so I guess I'll see you all in hell" - Jesus, Pt. 1

    ever wanted to wear a half skeletonized curvy fiery gal smoking a joint, gilded in an incantation of dramatic irony, liberating both you and herself from the toxic binds of queerphobic southern evangelicalism? Well you've come to the right place baby

lyrics

i know you’ve been searching for a resting place
i can only hold you, can’t take your place

me oh my, darling, it’s on you and no one else
you’ve got to free yourself

now for the first time, seeing bright futures
must have taken a certain kind of darkness

me oh my, darling, it’s on you and no one else
you’ve got to free yourself

can i admit what i’m thinking is just a shape in the ocean
if i could do it for you you know i would
never thought that i could let go,
but i could
and i did

me oh my, darling, it’s on you and no one else
you’ve got to free yourself
me oh my, darling, it’s on you and no one else
you’ve got to free yourself
