The Feminine Urge

A room at dusk

Mastering the art of lying still

Breathe like a girl

Till my lungs fill

Oh, pull your boots up, boys

And push me down

I'm only here

For your entertainment

I am a dark red liver stretched out on the rocks

All the poison, I convert it and I turn it to love

Here comes the feminine urge, I know it so well

To nurture the wounds my mother held

Oh, ballerina, bend under the weight of it all

Ain't it fun to hold the world in your hands?

Do you feel like a man when I can't talk back?

Do you want me, or do you want control?

Failure to commit to the role, I admit

Was a failure you achieved on your own

Do you want me to care when you just disappear?

I can't win them all (I can't win them all)

Run till I fall

How I wish the trees would swallow me

Make me a forest

Take away my soul

I could never give the curse to her

I, I could never live with the guilt of lying

That people are kind

I am a dark red liver stretched out on the rocks

All the poison, I convert it and I turn it to love

Here comes the feminine urge, I know it so well

To nurture the wounds my mother held

Oh, ballerina, bend under the weight of it all

Ain't it fun to hold the world in your hands?

Do you feel like a man when I can't talk back?

Do you want me or do you want control?

Failure to commit to the role, I admit

Was a failure you achieved on your own

Do you want me to care when you just disappear?

I can't win them all (I can't win them all)

I am a dark red liver stretched out on the rocks

All the poison, I convert it and I turn it to love

Here comes the feminine urge, I know it so well

To nurture the wounds my mother held

Give me that dark red liquor stretched out on the rocks

All the poison, I convert it and I turn it to love

Here comes the feminine urge, I know it so well

To nurture the wounds my mother held
