LYRICS:
Put me together
Thread a needle
So I’m like other people
Without all of the evil
I’m trying to be normal
But trauma is immortal
And none of this is your fault
Ah ah ah
Oh my god
This is so unbearable
Make it stop
This is more than medical
All I want is
To feel beautiful inside and out
You’re the one
That can save me from myself
Destruction triple 9 I need your help
All I want is
To feel beautiful
Put me together one more time
Love me forever fix me right
I can be your Frankenstein
Frankenstein
Put me together make me better
Love me forever hold me tight
I can be your Frankenstein
Frankenstein
I don’t wanna be a monster anymore
I don’t wanna be a monster
I was doing fine
Till I hit rock bottom
Opened up my problems
Watch the poison blossom
Aaaahh
Aahhh

Know this woman that you're watching is Satan's puppet and she is tricking you into grabbing your soul by singing this music over and over again you're putting curses on yourself and all you have to do is to find out the truth is say most high God if you can hear me show me that you can hear me and show me that you sent your son Jesus Christ of Nazareth to die on the cross for my sin I want to see it I want you to show me God and if you are real and you do speak to my heart please keep me safe and protect me from the fiery darts of the evil one

[@bluemoon7785]

I don't think success is always the same for every artist. Rina is making unique and beautiful art, she's creating a great repertoire. Maybe this isn't the songs that will trend, but at least she has a loyal fan base, people who really resonate with what she has to say, that's better than being a one-hitter in my books.

[@jessschaper4784]

The Rina Stan in me: AMAZING. SHOWSTOPPING. ICONIC. my literature degree: Frankenstein was the scientist!!!!! He wasn't the monster, but the creator!!!!!

I mean he was the monster because he neglected his own creation after creating it. Like an unwanted child in an abusive household.

i just wanna say that this song ties with HTG for me as far as personal resonance and wanted to thank rina for writing this bop that perfectly encapsulates my own feelings about myself. also i saw a drag queen perform it and literally fell off my chair in excitement.

Codependency within relationships is something I’ve always faced in my personal life. This song means a lot to me and so does other songs within this album and other songs Rina has made. I just want to say thank you Rina for all you do for pop music and making it meaningful for me and others as well.

[@MotherJammer]

I feel the same as you. I was capable to change in 180° myself to keep them loving me, accepting me and fulfill my guilt for my mistakes. Once I broke up with them, Frankestein made me fell a whole new level of sensations.

The song is great, but is anyone else here peeved that she got "Frankenstein" wrong? It may just be me, but reading through the lyrics it seems like Rina is the monster in this song and the other person is the doctor. So going by that, the other person should be Frankenstein. If I'm right and she did mixup the two, it's a common mistake to make and thus not a big deal, simply an observation I made here that irked me enough to write this comment. Alas! The song slaps and I have literally nothing bad to say about it. I'll be back in my corner now.

[@mikagames5256]

it doesnt matter, if you dress as frankensteins monster, people will call you frankenstein. maybe its symbolic of how youre only seen as an extension of your creator

[@prismaze]

but "frankenstein' monster" doesn't sound SLAY
