Vulnerability enrages me
That sickening unnerving sound of whining people
Acute, pitiful sound of strained high pitching
Soft mocking in a stare that unhumans the flesh
I wanna strike and punch against sugar concerns
I wanna sharpen dull edges painted with honey
I'm so sick and nauseous from the honey
I can't breath amongst your soothing arms
I want to bite them and claw my way out
Shut up and hit me, scream and dismiss me
Bitter water's more bearable than the way you call me sweetie
And all of this bane motions,
all this seems obnoxious
Take your whiny eyes elsewhere
'Fore I punch them out your face
Sharp your edges, for fucks sake
Or I will do so myself
