THE CONTORTIONIST - Melanie Martinez

Writer(s): Christopher J. Baran, Melanie Adele Martinez

Publisher(s): Lyrics © CONCORD MUSIC PUBLISHING LLC, Warner Chappell Music, Inc.

Twisted all my limbs for you
Two of them in knots and two of them in loops
Ribbons tied around like a noose
Wonder if I'll ever get it loose
I don't wanna bruise for you
Holding back my words until my face is blue (huh)
I don't really care about your crew
You can tell 'em what you wanna do

(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Pushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Lovin' me
(Blood is pumping, blood is pumping) Pullin' me
(Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing) Fuckin' me
(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Crushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Touchin' me
Ah

I'm done, I'm done
Done doing backbends
I break and I snap, it's no fun, no fun
Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun
I'm done, ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
I'm done, I'm done
Ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Twisting all my bones like screws
Stretching my self worth, just like you usually do
Caught you like the cold or a flu (achoo)
Praying that I'll someday be immune
Got me like a bad tattoo (oh-oh-oh)
Always under skin, even when it gets removed (ooh)
Never got a chance to undo (oh-oh-oh)
Positions that you forced my way into

Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (pushin' me)
Body's touching, body's touching (lovin' me)
Blood is pumping, blood is pumping (pullin' me)
Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing (fuckin' me)
Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (crushin' me)
Body's touching, body's touching (touchin' me)
Ow

I'm done, I'm done
Done doing backbends
I break and I snap, it's no fun, no fun
Pushed myself into a box, while you held out a gun
I'm done, ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
I'm done, I'm done
Ah-ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Pushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Lovin' me
(Heart is pumping, heart is pumping) Pullin' me
(Feelin' nothing, feelin' nothing) Fuckin' me
(Bones are crushing, bones are crushing) Crushin' me
(Body's touching, body's touching) Touchin' me
(Blood is pumping, blood is)
Ow
