Selby Wall lyrics
by Ethel Cain
[Intro]
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
There comes a point in every girl's life where she just wants to go f*cking feral
Take a man between her hands and rip that motherf*cker's limbs from him
And every time I let you f*ck me, I think about how easy it would be to take your life away from you
Which I'd never do
Unless you force me to
[Pre-Chorus]
You never tell me that I'm pretty, you just say you like my tits
And every time I cry you say, "Don't be a little b*tch"
But I'm still stupid and in love, and I'd still let you f*ck me 'til I'm c*mming blood
[Chorus]
But baby
One of these days I'm gonna crack
And cut you up with a rusty saw in my daddy's shed and bury the pieces out back
Lie on your grave and masturbate and think of all the things we could have been
'Cause baby, if you f*ck me over I'll make sure that you can't do it again
[Post Chorus]
And ah, oh, oh
Aah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah-ah
[Verse 2]
There comes a point in every man's life where he gets the need to destroy (Need to destroy)
Some sickness in his guts that started growing when he was just a little boy (When he was just a little boy)
And all the times you bruised my throat and pulled my hair until it broke and held me down and f*cked me 'til I was on the brink of death (Brink of death)
'Cause when you f*ck, you f*ck until there's nothing left, ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
You never tell me that I'm pretty, you just say you love my ass
And you go on and on about some girl that you f*cked in the past
You're such a man, I bet that I could f*ck her better than you can
Better than you can
[Chorus]
But baby
One of these days I'm gonna crack (One of these days I'm gonna crack)
Cut you up with a rusty saw in my daddy's shed and bury the pieces out back (Ooh)
Lie on your grave and masturbate and think of all the things we could have been (All of the things we could have been)
'Cause baby, if you f*ck me over I'll make sure that you can't do it again (Ooh, ooh)
[Bridge]
And I saw her downtown and asked her out, went to her house and we f*cked in her bed (And we f*cked in her bed)
She's sweeter than you'll ever be when I give her kisses between her legs (Between her legs) (Kisses in between her legs)
You don't deserve such pretty things when all you do is shoot to kill (Shoot to kill)
And she'll love me and I'll love her better than you could, I promise you I will (I promise you I will, I will, I will)
[Chorus]
And baby, I told you one of these days, I swore I was gonna crack (Ooh, ooh)
That I'd take you from your crying mother and I'd never give you back
She and I lie on your grave and masturbate and think of all the things we'll do, (We'll do)
Now that we've moved on, now that you're gone, now that we know we're better off without you
We're better off without you
We're better off without you, ooh, ooh
