Rose from ODDBIRD by Wren Dove Lark

I stay the hell out of your way
But still you find a way
To get in my way

You like to spend your time
Wasting my time
If that’s what you like, I guess that’s fine

‘Cause I’m just gonna
Wrap myself in contradictions
Just to spite you

‘Cause I don’t even like you
You think I’m gonna let you ruin my night?
You don’t have a right to.

If you’re the thorn that’s in my side
I’ll just grow right beside you

And from the excrement beneath me
I will rise
And you can watch me
With your beady little eyes
As your shitty little guts
Rot from the inside
And fertilize me

And if the price of figuring myself out
Is to watch you freak out
Knock yourself out

And if I try to give you light
And you reflect the night
If that’s what you like, I guess that’s fine

‘Cause I’m just gonna
Wrap myself in contradictions
Just to spite you

‘Cause I don’t even like you
You think I’m gonna let you ruin my night?
You don’t have a right to.

If you’re the thorn that’s in my side
I’ll just grow right beside you

And from the excrement beneath me
I will rise
And you can watch me
With your beady little eyes
As your shitty little guts
Rot from the inside
And fertilize me

I felt the pain of your punches
I felt your hand on my ass
I felt the weight of the minute hand
As I watched the time pass
For twenty fucking years
Until it came to me at last
That’s when I learned

To wrap myself in contradictions
Just to spite you (Just to spite you)

‘Cause I don’t even like you (I don’t even like you)
You think I’m gonna let you ruin my night?
You don’t have a right to.

If you’re the thorn that’s in my side
I’ll just grow right beside you

And from the excrement beneath me
I will rise
And you can watch me
With your beady little eyes
As your shitty little guts
Rot from the inside
And fertilize me

It actually feels kind of nice
