Black Widow Lyrics by Judith Hill

Letters From a Black Widow

2024

The shadow of my hand, a terrifying sight dancing in the sun shining on my carpet
The little bend and twists of horrible contortions writhing in my fingers
They try hard to escape the cursed lines of my palms
I’ve been locked up in this room for so long
I don’t know if it’s day or night but I long to be free again
Go back to the way things once were
I’ve been hiding from all of the danger
It’s not safe outside no I can’t go out there
Can’t go out anymore
I walk on stringy legs with a scarlet letter on my back
It makes me shutter it’s so grotesque
I broke the mirrors because I can’t trust them no more
Or maybe the image is only in my head
Unzip my skin and it’s as soft as baby human
Crack the exoskeleton and you’ll find I’m flesh and bone
But I built these four wall to protect me from the world
Or maybe it’s the other way around
Black widow, that’s not my name
Black widow, hey sir that’s not my name
Black widow, hey sis don’t call me that
Black widow, black widow, black widow
Black widow, bad omen
Oh I ain’t done nothing wrong to you
That’s not my name
You want me to stay away?
Okay okay, have it your way I guess I am Black Widow
(Black Widow killed MJ and Prince)
The shadow of my hand is terrifying moving in slow motion in the sun
My crime is existence so I’ve kept my distance
Away so far away from everyone
Black widow, how dare you say that
Black widow, that’s not my name
Black widow, have you no heart
Black widow, okay okay
Maybe it’s true, maybe it’s true
Don’t get too close, I’m bad juju
I’m cursed cuz I’ve been bitten
I’m black and I’m forbidden
