​​​the ripple

[Verse 1]
And to accept to be duped
To not grimace at the absolute
An offering in your teeth of no use
Any other life
Any other body
Any goddamn type of dignity
And to accept to be viewed
To not let them hold that over you
To be groveling at their feet till they shoot

[Pre-Chorus]
An existence that cuts
To be overseen and overloved

[Chorus]
And give up on your personhood, hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should
And give up on your personhood, hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should

[Verse 2]
And to be welcomed to my room
Sharing was so overdue
Weren't you a final piece to feel full?
Well, not any other life
Not any other body
Not any goddamn type of dignity
To be accepted too soon
To let my judgment go underused
Got myself a brand-new sheen to feel confused

[Pre-Chorus]
An existence that cuts
To be overseen and overloved

[Chorus]
And give up on your personhood, hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should
And give up on your personhood, hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should, you ever should
