Floral Tattoo She
Needle in the arm, feeling draining from me
Better close my eyes, lest I pass out
Pink around the wrist, I'm free to go now
Leave through the front door
And I don't know where I'm going
Or what I'm gonna do with my life
Drink some water
You didn't lose a whole lot of blood back there
But a loss of blood's still a loss of blood
So drink up, drink up, and so a toast
To all the things we're leaving behind
To deadnames, addictions, and bodies that we hate
To cancers and blood clots and the risks that we take
To a new day, say hey, drink up while you can
Because water is something we need to survive
I'm afraid to admit it, but I guess I'll admit
That I don't know where I'm going
Or what I'm gonna do with my life
To hell with it all
I have broken the bindings around my wrists and they fall
I am no longer stuck in this disgusting frame
My whole life I've been told to be who you are
But I haven't been able to do that thus far
Until somebody told me that I wasn't all alone
