~~~~~~~ starts with a single drop and perfect silence this menstrual cycle that comes with collateral violence they will laugh and joke about your chastity then put a bounty on your virginity make a story out of your name then set the hounds on your trails blood will keep on running, until you can't keep on running until you become the very demon they've been wanting frightened by your femininity, yet aroused by its delicacy they'll put a cross to your face, only to laugh at your disgrace you can't lead, can never be like Christ yet you will imitate his suffering day and night they'll question your faith, try to burn you at the stake when the irony is the more one bleeds the more one prays ~~~~~~~

This Cycle of Blood
~~~~~~~ starts with a single drop and perfect silence this menstrual cycle that comes with collateral violence they will laugh and joke about your chastity then put a bounty on your virginity make a story out of your name then set the hounds on your trails blood will keep on running, until you can't keep on running until you become the very demon they've been wanting frightened by your femininity, yet aroused by its delicacy they'll put a cross to your face, only to laugh at your disgrace you can't lead, can never be like Christ yet you will imitate his suffering day and night they'll question your faith, try to burn you at the stake when the irony is the more one bleeds the more one prays ~~~~~~~
