You want me It’s true yes you do I’m a pawn Another use But you want more More of me Me, me, me Double or nothing I’m a status symbol Something to smile about I make you feel powerful Not for me no but what I mean You tamed me you see Marked me when you were inside That’s all that matters You need as much of me as you can get You’ll even hurt me to get your way You need to feel this way I wish I could admire whatever strength you claim to have By doing what? You think sticking me with a needle means that you’re a god That scars and bruises are just less dignified ribbons And the more you do it with more duplications that must mean you’re the best, right? Pathetic and selfish and so laughable and insecure I’m begging myself to pity you But all I find is pain and shame and rage What is so wrong about me that I am nothing more than a mystery to gawk over? Do you understand what it’s like to be treated like an empty vessel? No I don’t expect your sympathies You’ve killed that part of you since you were a child
