LYRICS;
We’re brokenhearted in designer, ripped up stockings
In Demonia, ballerina, you broken ballerina
She cries a whole river, fairy lost her wings yeah
Her tears of eyeliner, look pretty when they splash her
Broken hearted in designer
Ripped up stockings in Demonia
(Designer sadness! Designer sadness! Ya!)
Babbling all day I hear things call to me
And them demons keep on crawling on me on me
Screaming my name they keep on clawing me
And they’re entering inside of me of me
They say they fill up the pain, the hole inside of me
Shiny pretty precious devils riding on me on me
Balenciaga, Gucci, Prada
Fill the hole suppress the trauma
Bending backwards Jeffery Dahmer
Spending make twice back that’s karma
Dionysius mother Isis turn my strengths all into vices
What’s your price b*tch? That’s real nice b*tch
Make a million in this crisis
And I’ve been out my body yeah
Since I faced off all my fear
Psychologically I’m here
But in my heart I disappear

An apologist for the pagan elders whose complacency and laziness made my abuse more likely. Theyre fucking job was to keep watch and they went off frolicking instead. The Question changed my life.

[@Yoshi92]

Zheani has some of the best tracks I've ever heard. I love her screaming like a fkin dying black metal artist, one of the most interesting female voices out there. Completely own fkin style, just stunning. Wether it's the atmosphere, crazy variety of absolutely sick vocals (with and without filters, always fkin killer), the fkin amazing instrumentals, the completely fucked up & over the top production to the max, and even the videos are dope af. A truly talented artist. Definitely not doing music to appeal to a mass audience, just doing her own fkin thing and that's what counts. If I had to describe her with two words it'd be: *COOL CHAOS* The *exact opposite* of: -BORING SHIT- And I hope she continues to make music for a loooooooong time! Because if she's bringing out these bangers already, I can't even imagine how many gems she will deliver in the future. And this song is so jawdropping, I have no specific words for it.
