I know which part of your brain wants to kill me

cut it out, put it in a jar, and leave it on my doorstep

I wanna know why

Sweetheart, all you are is a story you tell yourself

tall tales around a pit of your burning bones

you don't know who you are

kindly give me that jar and let me keep it under my bed

dissect your brain until all you know is me

let me eat the pieces so all I know is you

your head is empty now

who are you?
