Lyrics Mannequin Pussy – Fear/+/Desire
Text:
You beg me to build you a monument
And as it grew, oh so did all my regret
Is this what you wanted?
Does holding me down make you feel desire?
Leave my body till I can return
I’ll unlearn
All I give to you is meant to burn, burn
When you hit me
It does not feel like a kiss
Like the singers promised
A lie that was written for them
And you’re touching me
My skin it turns to mold
And I’m crying out
A story never told
I was hiding out
Is this what you wanted?
Holding me down makes you feel desired
Leave my body till I can return
I’ll unlearn
All I give to you is meant to burn, burn
I was climbing into bed and pretended to sleep
While your hands wrap around me and I silently weep
And possession is a demon that I never meant to keep
To keep
You beg me to build you a monument
And as it grew, oh so did all my regret
