+
+    before anything else, this is ultimately a demo! it will be edited more when i go through the big album cleanup later this year, but i have a soft spot for where it is right now, and i don't want to make any more changes until i know what it's going to be paired with. anyway!
+
+    it's difficult for me to talk about this song. i started writing it three years ago in response to the clarion call of a very negative relationship that an ex was trying to revive. "i'm only a body to this person," i thought at the time.
+
+    eventually that line became the chorus, but over the years since i began writing it, my frustration with the subject matter -- greed, abuse, lack of empathy -- broke through into a satirical parroting-back of the things some people would prefer us to be: ever-accommodating supplies of attention and catharsis.
+
+    i wanted to reclaim those "i'm only a body" lines and transform them into something as haunting on its face as it was to me personally... but i also wanted people to know what a surprise they'll be in for should they view others as such.

+    Gnihtemos rof gnitiaw neeb ev'i

+    Ydob a ylno m'i
+
+    The new gods lie in undertones
+    And always we feel honor-bound
+    That siren song says, "Come along"
+    So we crawl that wicked way back down
+
+    Lambs turn into wolves these days
+    'Cause no one's hunting hounds
+    The gentle things are suffering
+    Made monsters on the battlegrounds
+
+    But beggars can't choose
+    Where winners never lose
+    Ghosts stayed ghosts forever
+    Before you came through
+
+    Before you
+    
+    Oh, come and revive me
+    Come take what's inside me
+    It's only a body
+    I'm only a body
+
+    Come in and refine me
+    I've been waiting for something to redesign me
+    Come get what you came for
+    Pretend I was made for you
+
+    The royals say we must adjust
+    So we bite back our wanderlust
+    Bring back the golden fleece
+    Our money weeps
+    It never asked to rule us
+
+    Well, I am just a pattern-finding
+    Spot-the-difference machine in
+    Gravity's embrace
+    For just a second I can witness this
+
+    Where beggars can't choose
+    Where winners never lose
+    Ghosts stayed ghosts forever
+    Before you came through
+
+    Oh, come and revive me
+    Come take what's inside me
+    It's only a body
+    I'm only a body
+
+    Come in and refine me
+    I've been waiting for something to redesign me
+    Come get what you came for
+    Pretend I was made for you
+
+    So come on and try me
+    Come put out the fire in me
+    If that's how you see me
+    If you think it'd be easy
