The first verse is saying basically that she is hurting her self physically but is lying to herself saying she isnt. She is also regretting the pain. Second verse says that she is drinking and that she is getting violent and there is still mom and damage to do therefore saying she is indeed violent. Then they take the axe trying to stop her. Third is saying you should leave because im wasting my time. Fourth is saying that she is always victimmised and in the wrong place at the wrong time. Also if she could shut them out maybe she wouldnt feel so victimised. fifth is saying that she has been placed in a place such as a hospital that would be safe. sixth is saying that she has a bit of a temper and will enforce harm and someone is leading her onto this harm. SItxh she is keeping a secret that the demons so to speak are yelling at her for and that they "arent being paid enough" because their effort is useless and she wants a second chance because she could be decent still or yet...and she is saying she could be so decent that she woudl be a great person and that she would even be nice enough to be "president"...and the corrections are below.
thirty licks with a belt - playing tricks on myself
and i wonder if everyone else is this way
a succession of tests a triumphant success
each time it’s still intact at the end of the day
thirty drops in a glass - keep my temper and pass
with my breath held you bastards you've lucked out again
its not really so bad, there’s still mom there’s still
damage to do before they wrest the axe from my heads
its no mystery: you should obviously go
before i break everything
you’re always telling me that youre dying to know
but you’re not really listening
how do i manage to station myself in harms way
and only get hit with a ticket for loitering
that i have no way to pay - and no strength to argue
Mypersonal demons can skeeve with professional care
oh god their after me
if i could shut them out just for an hour i swear
(i could) stop this catastrophe
thirty day guarantee
but that can’t include me
after all i’m at home in this childproof world
no sharp corners or glass
no small objects or plastic bags
please, these are death to a delicate girl
its no mystery - you should obviously know
that i’ll destroy everything
so dont keep telling me that youre dying to know
cause you’ll get what youre asking for
how can it be that i still put myself in harms way
and only get hit with a ticket for loitering
that i have no way to pay -stating i came the wrong day
now all the demons are screaming their wages arent fair
I've held a secret kept
if i could shut them up just for a second i swear
it’ll look like an accident
i could be decent yet
the magnificent
i could be president....
