“…mongoose, kraken, cucumber, calla lilly, bourbon, angel”my friend’s voice was practically gone at this point.

No matter how many safe words the five of us screamed, it seemed no one was coming to free us from this escape room.

If I played the song around my boyfriend, she said he’d be in love with me forever, guaranteed!

Perhaps I should’ve chosen somewhere more private, as five joggers, two cyclists, a married woman and a duck have proposed to me already.

Tonight I came in, got undressed, washed up, brushed my teeth and went to bed.

I would kiss my husband goodnight, but I’m not wasting electricity to open and close the freezer willy-nilly now that we’re a one income household.

She told me that I was fearfully made, and puberty was the magic threshold that would finally make me feel at home in this body.

But staring at the wretched thing in the mirror through tears, at its planes and proportions that turn my stomach—I know how wrong she was.

(AS: if you’re coming from somewhere else… just know imma very novice producer. Don’t expect too much lol)

Hey, here’s a little song inspired by this two sentence horror story!! The last line just made me think of this idk. Ive been away from production for a bit but I think this is one of the cleaner things ive made. Ft some high school art so I can have some kind of cover. Any feedback is appreciated! Thanks if you give me a listen.

Things I wanna try doing:
More layers to the melody,
Better chopping up of vocal samples! I find it difficult to scrub and cut up little pieces it’s easy in bandlab but more challenging in an actual daw,
Improve the mix
Thinking of some kind of instrumental element for the end,
Or maybe doing a true acapella witj more layers?
More frequent and better adlibs, i also want to put a sample or two in there idk what

Lyrics, if that interests you (i dont think they are very accurate ☠️):
I wanna be your conquest,
I wanna be your void
I stand alone, no contest
Baby it’s not a choice

I wanna be your dagger
I wanna be your wound
So just eat me whole
Cause I’ll be leaving soon,
I’ll be leaving soon

I wanna be your man,
I wanna be your girl
I wanna be your karma
I wanna be your world

Baby do you wanna ride,
Do or dont it’s do or die
I could leave you paralyzed
Seeing with a new pair of eyes

We could be in paradise
Or we could be a pair of dice
Do you wanna take a ride
Do you think we’re on for life?

I want to be your voice
I want to be your tomb
So just eat me whole
I’ll be leaving soon,
I’ll be leavin you

“We walked him, played with him, gave him belly rubs and lots of kisses, so I don’t know what went wrong!

The breeder didn’t bother to tell me these things craved human flesh, so how the fuck was I supposed to know?”

One of my earliest childhood memories should be a good one, hand in hand with mama as we walked through the mall to buy me a new baby doll. But the passerby that cooed about how cute I was looked all wrong.

À rotting, impossibly tall woman who blinked sideways and dragged a thick black tongue over crowded yellow teeth— but worse was that my mom didn’t answer and nobody around seemed to notice.

The young man gave a triumphant holler, grabbing his dad’s shoulder as the fishing pole jerked wildly, he’d gotten another bite!

I was only mildly uncomfortable at first when the boy’s father hired us as party mermaids for his 21st birthday, but the hook that pierced through my flesh was hot white, unrelenting agony and I was the last to be ‘caught’.

I ran towards the dilapidated building at full speed, the word “boob” stood proudly above its grand wooden doors in a thick, bold font.

But I fell through the floor, unfortunately the ‘-y trap’ part of the sign had faded with the years.

She was the prettiest girl I’d ever seen, so I should swipe right, right?

The only problem is, I’m in the middle of the woods and my wifi went down days ago, buuuuuut she’s zero miles away— guess we could be snowed in together if answer the door!

I thought my mom was larger than life, and stronger than anything.

So when she told me she was seeing things that I couldn’t, and we weren’t safe at home, or anywhere in fact, I believed her for so many long years.

The tears in my eyes were finally close to drying, as I sat in the hard plastic of a hospital chair: she flatlined near two hours ago.

But then, I felt a cold thumb rubbing little circles into my cheek, like she’d done every evening when I got home.

2050

Modern day leech alternative
It works well enough to relieve the tension
Thought I’d grown more sophisticated
But as usual, simply mistaken

Think that 2050 is where I live,
since I’ve got it all figured out
Tap’s run dry, rusty spout
And not a piece of advice to give

So kind, yet I’ll curl my lips
It’ll never feel genuine
Knowing neither of us are shit
It’ll never be genuine
