death rattle - ethel cain

love isn’t painless and love isn’t free, and love’s never come easy to me
cause you dig deeper when i pull farther, you’ve never been afraid of what people say or see
you always tell me to bury you by your mother, so for the first time, you can feel close to her
you carve your prayers between my legs in hopes that you’ll feel better but you only feel worse
our days are numbered, and you can only drive so fast
and we can hide under the floorboards, but your body was never built to last
i cry every time i ask you
do you even wanna stay here with me
am i just a casualty to you
do you even know what that means
our days are numbered, and you can only drive so fast
and we can run until we’re out of sight, but your body was never built to last
