acupuncture - original song by daphne eckman

an original song about getting used to being stepped on and how maybe, the people you love shouldn't do that.
filmed by rick barnwell in ellicott city on 7/31/23
left a note on
my door
i don't owe you
shit anymore
i've been wondering when i said
that you ever did
never meant to
hold on like a
sticker on my back
you put it there to mess around
it’s not funny anymore
and i’m not a baby
i don’t cry over needles
in my temples and my hands
but if you press
hard enough
i could take to your command
cuz i've acclimated
to how thick your words feel in my throat
my mother says that i'm paling
look me over and tell me i don’t
feel warm to you
check over my frame
“you’re doing fine,
i’m the one wasting away”
but I’ve acclimated
so I’ll carry you all the way home
i know you don’t mean half of the things you say to me
never thought the voodoo doll would be a devotee
and i’m not a baby i won’t whine
if you can’t come by, won't wait for you
it’s one thing to let the blood flow
another all together to find the truth
why do i always choose
hell over someplace new
tear me down, stitch me up
don't i love this sadist stuff?
why do i always choose
hell over someplace new
tear me down, stitch me up
needles never do enough.
