CONTORTIONIST Lyrics by Arankai

A Portrait of Red

2024

[Verse 1]
I feel strange as I'm changing
Twist and turn me inside out, I'm aching
Satisfy what you want, what you need
I can tell you're starving, break a piece off of me
I've never seen such a pretty wicked thing
When did love get so many teeth?

[Chorus]
I should know better, I should know better
Nails on my neck, you should mark me with a red letter
Shame on me for second chances
I won't forget this, I won't forget this

[Verse 2]
I won't hesitate to put you in your place
I'll say it to your face, stay the fuck away from me
This isn't love, you're just a drug
I've had enough, I won't satisfy
What you want, what you need
I can tell you're starving, go ahead and starve then
I'll make you beg, like you did to me
Leave you in a mess, all you'll get is nothing

[Chorus]
I should know better, I should know better
Nails on my neck, you should mark me with a red letter
Shame on me for second chances
Burn me out, burn me down, leave me in the ashes
I should know better, I should know better
Nails on my neck, you should mark me with a red letter
Shame on me for second chances
Burn me out, burn me down, leave me in the ashes

[Outro]
I feel strange, I feel strange, I feel strange
This isn't love, you're just a drug
I've had enough, I won't satisfy
