LYRICS
Cold room
Can you hear me?
Blood is on my hands
Am I filthy?
Define the guilt that I’m supposed to hold

Lights out
Do you fear me?
Against the law of nature
Would you bless me?
To keep all that I have, do nothing wrong.

I’m the woman
I’m the sin
A blemish burned
Into your skin
I’m not the mother of your loss
I’m not the sister of your lust

Desperate I pray
Run the bath in the water I’ll bathe
I’ll do anything that you say
If I can be brand new

An apple to taste
Burn me up as I’m tied to the stake
And my skin will rot
I’m staring at my grave
Just hoping to be brand new

What if I want to be pretty?
What if I want to perform?
I don’t want to be nothing
What’s my voice without your words

So I’ll speak the language
But it’s a one sided design
It cuts my tongue when I speak it
Because it’s yours no it’s not mine

Cause I’m the woman
I’m the sin
A blemish burned
Into your skin
I’m not the mother of your loss
I’m not the sister of your lust

Desperate I pray
Run the bath in the water I’ll bathe
I’ll do anything that you say
If I can be brand new

An apple to taste
Burn me up as I’m tied to the stake
And my skin will rot
I’m staring at my grave
Just hoping to be brand new

Desperate I pray
Run the bath in the water I’ll bathe
I’ll do anything that you say
If I can be brand new

An apple to taste
Put me up as I’m tied to the stake
Rotting skin I stare at my grave
Just hoping to be brand new
