Lyrics
Stella
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hanging by the neck
Suspended by the throat
The world I picture's better
But I'm choking on the rope
There's nothing you can say
To save me from despair
So don't come in till morning
And let me kick this chair
Fuck!
Nobody knows me
They'll just know that I'm dead
They'll know the sick thoughts that plagued my head
I'll write it in a letter
But no one else will see
But my mother and my father while they're begging on their knees
Please, God, not my daughter!
She was just fifteen
Not your child to slaughter
Mother of God, open your eyes!
Don't leave me darling
Come back to the light!
Love me, somebody!
Love me, somebody!
Please, fuck!
Nobody knows me
They'll just know that I'm dead
They'll know the sick thoughts that fucked with my head
Love me, somebody!
Love me, somebody!
Please, fuck!
Hanging by the neck
Suspended by the throat
The world I picture's better, but I'm choking on the rope
There's nothing you can say
To save me from despair
So don't come in till morning and let me kick this chair
Please, God, not my daughter!
She was just fifteen
Not your child to slaughter
Mother of God, open your eyes!
Don't leave me darling
Come back to the light!
