Brand New

Cold room, can you hear me? Blood is on my hands, am I filthy?
Define the guilt that I am supposed to hold
Lights out, do you fear me? Against the law of nature, would you bless me?
To keep all that I have, do nothin' wrong

I'm the woman, I'm the sin, a blemish burned into your skin
I'm not the mother of your loss, I'm not the sister of your lust
Desperate, I'll pray, run the bath, in the water, I'll bathe
I'll do anything that you say if I could be brand-new
An apple to taste, burn me up as I'm tied to a stake
And my skin will rot, I'm starin' at my grave
Just hopin' to be brand-new

What if I wanna be pretty?
What if I wanna perform?
I don't wanna be nothing, what's my voice without your words?
So I'll speak the language, but it's a one-sided design
It cuts my tongue when I speak it 'cause it's yours, no, it's not mine

'Cause I'm the woman, I'm the sin, a blemish burned into your skin
I'm not the mother of your loss, I'm not the sister of your lust
Desperate, I'll pray, run the bath, in the water, I'll bathe
I'll do anything that you say if I could be brand-new
An apple to taste, burn me up as I'm tied to a stake
And my skin will rot, I'm starin' at my grave
Just hopin' to be brand-new

Desperate, I'll pray, run the bath, in the water, I'll bathe
I'll do anything that you say if I could be brand-new
An apple to taste, burn me up as I'm tied to the stake
Rotting skin, I'll stare at my grave
Just hopin' to be brand-new
