Yikes by The Childlike Empress Lyrics

(ohhhhhh this nigga got a banjo?)

This won't hurt, you said so softly
Before you dug the knife into my side
Why'd you lie?

Every time you said you'd take me home to
Meet your mother
You went and got arrested
You're such a mess, kid
Fuck you

Aren't you glad you took all those Xans
And heroin, now you've got the spins
You don't feel right
But just sit tight

I love you and you love me
But you don't know how to not act like
A caged beast
So I'll set you free
[tempo slows]

You free
You free
You free

One, two, three, yikes

You finally stopped calling
I heard that you've been better
Staying home, staying sober
How's your music and how's your mother?

(kill off every part of you that lives inside of me)

And have you spoken to your father
Since the night that you attacked him?
Are you sorry? Do you regret it?
Do you regret anything?

(kill off every part of you that lives inside of me)

I heard you got yourself a new girl
Will you tear her up like you did to me?
Or is she everything that you want?
(kill off every part of you that lives inside of me)

I heard they let you out the psych ward
Do you feel any better?
Are you eating, are you writing?
Do you miss me at all?

(kill off every part of you that lives inside of me)

And if you ask me how I have been
I will smile and tell you
That I've been fine
That I've been fine
That I've been fine
