maeve noiré - almond joy lyrics
the dress was itchy, but you liked it white
told me to twirl, said, “turn to the light.”
i smiled wide with my baby t++th;
you cl!cked the lens while i clenched beneath
your voice was sweet like sugared tea:
“say you’re happy, do it just for me.”
i wore the bow, i hid the bruise
played pretend—i didn’t get to choose
snap, snap, frozen in a frame
a dollhouse girl in a grown+up game
behind the lens, your eyes were kind
but your hands kеpt stealing mine
called mе joy, but made me swallow pain—
sweet on the outside, soaked in rain
put on a show, called me your pride
but closed the door when i cried
wrapped in ribbons, posed and still
taught to smile while you got your fill
almond sweet with cracks inside—
you loved the sh+ll
but watched me die
there’s frosting on the birthday cake
but none of it could stop the ache
you kissed my cheek with empty care
told me to dance while i gasped for air
laughter loud and colors bright
but every gift came with a bite
you filmed it all in family scenes
but i was rotting in between
flash, flash, my face goes numb—
the crowd claps on, they see no harm
you fed them lies, they fed me sweets
but sugar stings when it’s just deceit
called me joy, but made me swallow pain—
candied words to hide the stain
told me love was “looking proud,”
taught me silence kept you allowed
cameras roll, i spin on cue—
don’t say no, don’t tell the truth
almond sweet, but i can’t lie—
you broke the girl
and blamed her smile
you said, “look at you—so pretty still.”
but i bit my tongue so you’d get your thrill
they all said i was lucky to be seen
while you scr+ped out pieces of my scream
called me joy, but made me swallow pain;
all your love just left a stain
puppeteered me in your dream
but now i choke on whipped cream
smiles cracked, balloons all popped—
i played nice, and still it never stopped
almond sweet, like i’m your toy—
but i’m not yours
and i was never joy
