Detention/ Melanie Martinez

I'm not a bad guySo don’t treat me bad if I'm feeling sad, alright?Please don't be mad if I don’t smile back, alright?If I fuck up my words, don't think I'm absurd, alright?Alright?

I'm physically exhaustedTired of my knuckles beatingI'm chewing gum to pass this timeSadness, can't you see it?You're too busy seeking self-pleasuresLook at how I'm feelingYou write me up and say it’s loveAnd I can’t believe it

Baby, can you meet me tonight in detention?I can feel your blood pressure rise, fuck this tensionLet me crawl up into your mind, did I mention?Pretending everything's alright is detention

De-detentionDe-detentionPretending everything’s all right 

The teachers don't care 'bout meFuck how I feel, as long as I make moneyThey let them do whatever they want to meThey're the customer, I’m chopped meatI'm chopped meat

I'm physically exhaustedTired of my knuckles beating

I'm chewing gum to pass this timeSadness, can't you see it?You're too busy seeking self-pleasuresLook at how I'm feelingYou write me up and say it's loveAnd I can't believe it

Baby, can you meet me tonight in detention?I can feel your blood pressure rise, fuck this tensionLet me crawl up into your mind, did I mention?Pretending everything's alright is detention

De-detentionDe-detentionPretending everything's all right is detention

I wanna go home and you say, 'Now is not the time'Fuck being all alone in back of the classroom, ahStop calling up my phone, trying to say that I've been out of lineWhen all I ever asked is to go to the bathroom

Baby, can you meet me tonight in detention?I can feel your blood pressure rise, fuck this tensionLet me crawl up into your mind, did I mention?Pretending everything's alright is detention

Tonight, I can feel your blood pressure riseLet me crawl up into your mindPretending everything's alright
