[Verse 1]
Chewed up the words
Till my tongue went numb
Bit down on the hurt
Just to make you come
Lip gloss on the rim
Of an empty threat
You call it a phase
I call it a hex
[Pre-Chorus]
You say I’m too much
When I swallow it all
Love tastes like rust
On the back of my jaw
If I spit the truth
It’ll burn through your coat
Still you’re begging me
“Baby
Don’t choke”
[Chorus]
You put glass in my throat
Then you ask me to sing
Every cut
Every note
Is the price of your ring
If I scream
Will you float
On the blood that I bring?
You put glass in my throat
And you still want me to sing (oh)
[Drop]
[Beat stops
Vocal echoes]
Glass in my—
[Hybrid dubstep drop slams: detuned Reese growls
Distorted sub hits
Triplet glitch fills
Chopped “glass in my” vocal stabs answering the bass]
[Bridge]
Hands on my neck
That “I love you” grip
You polish my pain
Till it looks like a gift
If breaking me’s fun
You’re having a ball
Say it’s all in my head
As you watch me crawl
[Chorus]
You put glass in my throat
Then you ask me to sing
Every cut
Every note
Is the price of your ring
If I scream
Will you float
On the blood that I bring?
You put glass in my throat
And you still want me to sing (sing)
