lyrics from “punish” by ethel cain:

whatever’s wrong with me

i will take it to bed

i give in so easy

nature chews on me

little death like lead, poisonous and heavy

it has always been this way

mm, it has always been this way

i am punished by love

i am punished by love

in the morning, i will mar myself again

he was a natural plauché

saying “you won’t forget this”

shame is sharp, and my skin gives so easy

only god knows, only god would believe

that i was an angel

but they made me leave

i am punished by love

i am punished by love

i am punished by love

i am punished by love
