Wish
She left her tools inside me
And I twitch pleasantly
Dying slowly always cured me
From her Frankenstein hand
I swallowed lies and bitter candy
My tongue itches red
She rapes my sanity
And I fade-
Away
Love me knots and beheaded daisies
Wither in my dark
She holds me slowly as I die
And rebirth-
A curse
I want to runaway
I just want to fade away
Wont she let me get away
How I wish to stay away
Lifeless on the table, sore
Bored again I bleed in frays
Scalpels mapping long lost scars
Forget me now in surgery
I want to runaway
I just want to fade away
Wont she let me get away
How I wish to stay away
And I twitch pleasantly
Dying slowly always cured me
From her Frankenstein hand
I swallowed lies and bitter candy
My tongue itches red
She rapes my sanity
And I fade-
Away
Love me knots and beheaded daisies
Wither in my dark
She holds me slowly as I die
And rebirth-
A curse
I want to runaway
I just want to fade away
Wont she let me get away
How I wish to stay away
Lifeless on the table, sore
Bored again I bleed in frays
Scalpels mapping long lost scars
Forget me now in surgery
I want to runaway
I just want to fade away
Wont she let me get away
How I wish to stay away

This looks like an exploitation by inescapable loneliness. The persona (the victim) is a mere experiment under the tools of tyranny. "Beheaded daisies" but no "forget-me-nots" (instead, "love me knots") suggest that the exploiter gains all the pleasure, as a predator of sexploitation.
I sense desperation in the chorus stanza, by its mere repetition:
I want to runaway
I just want to fade away
Wont she let me get away
How I wish to stay away
The unrhymed, alliterative, free structure is symptomatic of the disconsolate discomposure and discomfiture of the victim, who sees pleasure around but experiences only the pain that brings such pleasure to the predator.
