"The actions of my past have caused pain and harm to a number of people, and I want to say that I am absolutely sorry. I do not stand in defense of myself, nor do I forgive myself, and there are a number of people who have had to shoulder the burden of my failures. I apologize for the hurt I have caused and hope to be able to take the correct actions to earn forgiveness and trust." - Jesse Lacey
Love me, baby,
are you close enough?
I don't need you, baby,
I don't need a rock,
I don't
Cut me, baby,
is it deep enough?
Is it in yet, baby,
are you tough enough?
You're my best friend, buddy,
you are on my cuff.
I don't love you, honey,
I don't know this drug
Fuck that noise, zero tolerance policy

"Drink cactus juice. It'll quench ya. Nothing's quenchier. It's the quenchiest."
"Okay, I think you've had enough."
Twisted off this Cactus Juice, I might be speaking latin, dude
Actus me invito factus non est meus actus, dude
People wanna work with me to put my name in brackets (who?)
Say they wanna practice just to put me on a mattress,
wanna hear me
Come to my room, room
Puff, pass, ching-ching
Not fucking thinking
Dollar eye twinking
Just a little junkie
Room's gettin skunky
I don't even like weed, but
You can pass it to me
Shut up and drink
(Can I get some of that?)
If I keep teaching you shit, you better pay me tuition
My pussy put a spell on you like a Bette Midler magician
But, boy, your dick looks like you need a pediatrician
Can you get insured with that pre-existing condition?
Step up, annoy me, try to clamp on
Step off, fuckboy, or you can eat my tampon
Who you tryna blast on - blast off? - strap on
Wax on, wax off, I don’t need a damp palm
I got a command on every land you land a camp on
Jack off to the task on hand that I can still expand on
Acting and demanding like I’m holding me for ransom
You can't hold my letters better, but like envelopes you’re stamped on,
grandpa
Take a seat my little pupil,
I am an alumn
You’re not gonna get some
Size you up like circum
I've got better things to do
Than to hang out with scum
Or to fuck a little drummer boy
Ba rum pum pum pum. come,
Come to my room, room
Puff, pass, ching-ching
Not fucking thinking
Dollar eye twinking
Just a little junkie
Room's gettin skunky
I don't even like weed, but
You can pass it to me
All you wanna hear me say is,
all you wanna hear me say is,
all you wanna hear me say is,
all you wanna hear me say is
Come to my room, room
Puff, pass, ching-ching
Not fucking thinking
Dollar eye twinking
Just a little junkie
Room's gettin skunky
I don't even like weed, but
You can pass it to me
Boys who think they showed me
Boys who think they wrote me
Never had a problem after that boy tried to grope me
Always wore a condom after that guy tried to choke me
Never was a bottom after that boy thought he broke me
One, two, fifteen don’t act like you know me
I look blue, taste green make you feel like codeine
I cook chew my own greens don’t act like you own me
I’m not your juliet and you will never be my tony
Don’t offer me your shit I always have my own rollies
Don’t wanna take a hit cause I do not fuck with your bony ass
Cough it up and spit I know your daddies bought you ponies
But the only thing that you can give to me is alimony
So wipe those eyes, I know everything you told me
Was full on lies, tried to say so you could hold me
Thought cause you saw me I would be your one and only
So, when you call me, leave a message at the toning
Drink,
Shut up

you've got this new head filled up with smoke
I've got my veins all tangled close
(damn)
you've got this new head filled up with smoke
I've got my veins all tangled close
to the jukebox bars you frequent,
the safest place to hide
a long night spent with your most obvious weakness,
you start shaking at the thought
you are everything I want,
cause you are everything I want
and we lie, we lie together, just not
too close, too close (how close is close enough)
we lie, we lie together, just not
too close, too close
I just wanna break you down so badly
I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
in the worst way
I know it's hard but you gotta keep my name out your mouth
I know you're a little thirsty, it's too bad it's a drought
Yeah, you came a little early, but it's too late now
This an A and B conversation, see yourself out
I'm inarticulate, in a predicament,
and nobody's eyes are hungrier than mine
While I'm sticking in the thick of it and sick of staying innocent,
got no allies when I commit this crime
I'm gonna make damn sure
that you can't ever leave,
no you won't ever get too far from me,
you won't ever get too far from me,
I'll make damn sure
that you can't ever leave,
no you won't ever get too far from me,
you won't ever get too far
I just wanna break you down so badly
I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
in the worst way
So if you see me, keep my name out your mouth,
this an A and B conversation, see yourself out

the way i hate her has come and gone
cause you’re the traitor
not your liason
you couldn’t find me
in that stormy sea
of cigarette butts
and black coffee
find me
i’m callin you out,
you never tried
i know better now,
you may have loved, but always lied
i know better now
stop
let me tell you what you’re missing,
oh, believe me, there’s a lot
so i pray to god you’re listening
pray to god you’re listening
hope you’re happier empty
so go congratulate yourself
i’ll always be the best thing
you ever had the chance to help with
hope you’re happy living
knowing i’m living somewhere else
the life you didn’t stick around
to see if I could make myself
callin
and then you fell back down, like i knew you would,
i let my demons drown before you knew i could
i haven’t seen that town, or my old neighborhood
no, i don’t hang out for the greater good
and i heard you say you apologized
but that don’t mean shit to my two black eyes
and you don’t do shit with that hand you’re dealt
i don’t forgive you, kid, go fuck yourself
pray to god you’re listenin (stop)
let me tell you what you’re missing,
oh, believe me, there’s a lot
so i pray to god you’re listening
pray to god you’re listening
you couldn’t find me
find me
(find me, find me, couldn’t)

(yellow brick road, carry me home)
For heathen heart that puts her trust
In reeking tube and iron shard
All valiant dust that builds on dust
And guarding, calls not Thee to guard
how you gonna make things better
with your bad record?
you can't run, you can't run
I am king of the night,
the night, oh I'm king of the night
I am king of the night
I don't gotta wonder, wonder
I know what you wanna, wanna,
I know what you wanna, wanna,
think you gotta do
M D marijuana, juana,
think that you're the dalai lama
let's jump in the lackawanna,
they won't have a clue
hold your breath, champ, this is gonna hurt
let your fists clamp shut. reassurance
bite the cloth, man, this is gonna echo
and I can stop, man, but it's not gonna let go
bend your fingers back, brother, bite your tongue
let your toes crack, brother, I was wrong
grit your teeth, man, smother it so long
stand strong for another til it's gone
(you can't run, you can't run)
I am king of the night,
the night, oh I'm king of the night
I am king of the night
(hold your breath, champ, this is gonna hurt
let your fists clamp shut. reassurance
bite the cloth, man, this is gonna echo
and I can stop, man, but it's not gonna let go
bend your fingers back, brother, bite your tongue
let your toes crack, brother, I was wrong
grit your teeth, man, smother it so long
stand strong for another til it's gone)

cause I don't trust myself to do it

bored, bored, bored, bored
bored, bored, bored, bored
bored, bored, bored, bored

wouldn't touch you for a drink and I'm an alcoholic

in a baggy ass shirt, you don’t get to see my ribs

five cigarettes lit got my fishnets ripped
im a tripped ass bitch, got residuals at intervals
only reason my brains inside my body is centrifugal
i’m spinnin down down, i c u condition critical
i see you feelin typical, don’t treat me like a criminal
you keep picking sides but won’t call yourself political
keep looking at the light between my thighs
and try to criticize the physical
i don’t need your Eddie ass tryin to be cynical
i don’t need an Ana buddy trying to be minimal
hopping on the elliptical, or hittin up my digital
every day to watch my shit and see if I’m invisible
don’t wanna be the pinnacle whipped cream vodka ass bitch
with the wet dream thigh gap busted ass lips
buying cocaine diet coke die in her friends lap
don’t focus on me just sell me that vyvanze
i don’t wanna move yet but I’m bored of the bars
six boys in the car, engine like a spanish R
yeah you care where i’m at
i don’t care where you are
ring ring on my phone
like the fuckin bell jar
I would never let you hit it behind fifty condoms,
wouldn't touch you for a drink and I'm an alcoholic
I would never let you hit it behind fifty condoms,
wouldn't touch you for a drink and I'm an alcoholic

satanic cavalier ready to massacre
Hi, what's up,

sometimes I gotta check my breathing
cause you don't gotta know bout me
you don't gotta know bout me
you don't gotta know bout me
sometimes I gotta check myself
cause you don't need to know bout me
you don't even know bout me
and we don't gotta shoot the breeze
play with me
tonight, we'll see
if we're as hopeless as we always hoped we'd be
stay with me
and be so sweet
the sugar in my blood is always leaving me
dry
leave me dry
sometimes I gotta check my breathing
cause you don't gotta know bout me
you don't gotta know bout me
you don't gotta know bout me
sometimes I gotta check myself
cause you don't need to know bout me
you don't even know bout me
and we don't gotta shoot the breeze
I've gotten off my knees
I know you got a bad idea bout me
and my right hand's shaking,
but my left hand's free,
and I know it ain't right,
no, I know it ain't right
I've taken everything
I know you've got a bad taste left from me,
and my right hand's shaking,
but my left hand's free,
and I know it ain't right,
no, I know it ain't right
don't you think I've thought of this before?
know I shouldn't say so anymore
sometimes I gotta check my breathing
cause you don't gotta know bout me
you don't gotta know bout me
you don't gotta know bout me
sometimes I gotta check myself
cause you don't need to know bout me
you don't even know bout me

shouldn't be much longer than tomorrow
lead me to the depths and I will follow
lead me to the tree and I will hang there
lead me to the bed and I will stay there
I'll unwind you when I find you
I'll unwind you when I find you
I'll unwind you when I find you
I'll unwind you when I find you
I have found another way to leave here
settle in the congregation grieving
only kiss me to check if I’m breathing
breathing never struck me as believing
only kiss me to check if I’m breathing
breathing never struck me as believing
(I'll unwind you when I find you
I'll unwind you when I find you)
tree
tree
you know me but you don't know when
i don't think you know where I've been
their screams sounded like violins
their necks snapped just under their chins
i ache like I'll die and I will
you kill, and they kill, and it kills
withdrawal and you'll fall down the hill
to the pills, and the pills, and the pills
the dirt on your skin only seals you in
to your hurt, to your thin,
to your bleeding, your sin-coated
body whose hobby is bringing an end
to itself and the beauty that's been
growing gardens of crumbled ruins
(tree)
I want you, but like an attack
I lack, and I lack, and I lack
I'll weigh on your faith til it cracks
I'll break more than backs, more than backs
I've injected its graces and snorted maudlin
I have had sex in places where you've never been
I'm protected by faces who break more than in
who can give you a permanent grin
and I want you, and want you to sin
only kiss me to check if I’m breathing
breathing never struck me as believing
(I'll unwind you when I find you
I'll unwind you when I find you)

MEDUSA Buffalo, New York
Medusa is a "revenge pop" musician based in New York. They're pretty sure they subconsciously stole calling their music "___-pop" from their friend Zand, who coined "ugly-pop," but it's way too late in the game to undo it now.
