the sound of heels attacking
gravel in an alley and the
scent of something sulfurous
gushes from her lips

emyli everybody wants to be you
they don't know the [bad word] that you've been through
emyli everybody wants to be you
they don't know the [bad word] that you've been through

the punctures in-between the [bad word] on her arms and legs
invisible with powder puffs and
fishnets jeans and kisses

emyli everybody wants to be you
they don't know the [bad word] that you've been through
they just like the way you look
the way you dress
the way you walk
they couldn't care less about the way you took a beating
the way you took a beating
the way you took a beating
a beating
a beating
