The Deadly Sexuality of the Mantis

==Background==
"The Deadly Sexuality of the Mantis" is a song featuring GUMI and DEX by StardustLegend. It was based off of a weird fever dream they had.
==Lyrics==
I was raised to never disagree
With the whims and will of society
I was taught to follow my “destiny”
Set by those who care about posterity
They told me that I would be happy
Though I feel that’s quite the contrary
I was made the lovely bride to be
Made to raise my own happy family
Despite all that I have been given
I could never see myself forgiven
If I were to ever stray away
From the path they put me underway
I was born without a right to say
My own thoughts didn’t matter anyway
What I wanted was irrelevant
My own will is thought to be decadent
Creeping, crawling, all through my very skin
Gnashing, mending, all for my only kin
Bending, breaking, buckling under thin
Bleeding, bruising, flesh from deep within
What was I to do with these tendencies?
Feeling like I committed felony
Accusations forming like treachery
I don’t want to be seen as guilty!
Heads up! Please don’t touch me!
Just hold back, please don’t hurt me!
Stay away, it’s not safe, just obey, keep at bay!
Hey you! Please stay with me!
“Let’s be friends?”, please don’t out me!
Make amends, privileged ends. Hiding sin. Life begins.
I was never one to disagree
With the whims and will of society.
Always stick to what is familiar.
Though what she feels I feel similar
Just another cog in the machine,
Made to keep it lovely and pristine.
I was made the handsome groom to be.
Made to start my own happy family.
I would always fall in line for thee.
For the sake of my survivability.
Never questioned what was relevant.
So that I would not seem decadent
But my time has come to settle down,
Set by those who would look down and frown.
For the sake of my posterity
I will give my whole vitality
Mending, building up quite the matrimony,
Feeling, crying out for insurgency.
Walking, pacing, out so wordlessly.
Gleaming, smiling, laughing so forcibly,
This has always seemed like the normalcy,
Acting out a lie so half-heartedly,
Keep the façade up so cheerfully,
Was this meant to be my eternity?
Oh the rising tides come with me,
Acting like a fool with such glee.
Ever waiting loyal I promise!
Ceremonial in process.
Vines they grow along my vision.
Oh the lovely fruit they’ve given.
Placing me into submission
Wedging cracks among division.
Oh the gentle wind that soothed me,
Breezing by when I once was free
Howling into old tradition.
Bending me into “perfection”.
Thorns along the vines they’ve caught me.
Burrowing like roots of the tree.
Giving up on my whole being.
Sacrifice the dreams I’m seeing.
Heads up! Please don’t touch me!
Just hold back, please don’t hurt me!
Stay away, it’s not safe, just obey, keep at bay!
Hey you! Please stay with me!
“Let’s be friends?”, Please don’t out me!
Make amends, privileged ends. Hiding sin. Life begins.
We were never ones to disagree
We had always valued conformity
So that we could please our family.
Despite all the things we have given.
We could never see ourselves forgiven.
We could never go against the tides,
Our true colors always forced to hide.
Heads up! Please just take me!
Don’t hold back, it won’t hurt me!
It’s okay, we’re not safe, keep that face! Take a taste!
Hey you! Please stay with me!
“We’re not friends? It’s so lonely.”
Caving in, feeling bent, taking sin. Life begins.
Oh the woeful kiss we’ve given,
Acting out as our contribution.
Work the silence their suspicion. 
Giving into such tradition.
Taken against my volition.
Yearning for the abolition.
Of such backwards obligation.
Bringing out such forced seduction.
