VI. Would You Rather - Phoebe Bridgers

I'm in here, so I might as well read 'em I gotta thank you for this anger that I carry around Wish I could take a match and burn this whole room to the ground Matter of fact I think I'm a burn this room right now So now this memory for some reason just won't come down You used to put me in the corner, so you could see the fear in my eyes Then took me downstairs and beat me 'til I screamed and I cried Congratulations, you'll always have a room in my mind“

It's getting harder to seeSlit my wrists, bloody fists Questioning why I exist Pain persists, evil gifts Fucking up my life to shit I'm worthless, I'm worthless I'm worthless, slit my wrists until I bleed out Clinging to hope What else is there to live for?

XIII. Where the Shadow Ends - Banners
“In the rising wind where the black waves call To the bones of ships on the ocean floor To your hopeless heart left on the shore There's nothing left here anymore There's a great unknown from you to me And when your prayer's unheard and you don't believe So put your faith in the devil and the deep blue sea Put your trust in the light that you cannot see There's a darkness up ahead I will see you Where the shadow ends“
XIV. Tales of Dominica - Lil Nas X

Was everybody right about me? Scary things in my head, I can't dream and I just Oh, finally grown, ain't nothing like I hoped it would be Out on my own, I'm floating in an ocean-less sea Could I be wrong? Was everybody right about me? Scary things in my head, I can't dream and I just”
