Gonna be honest, I didn't like this song the first time I heard it. But the best songs are the songs which have to grow on you.
The lyrics got stuck in my head and they didn't leave me alone until I listened again, I am now absolutely in love with this song.Â
I can't help singing along with your lyrics, not even on my bad days.
Your music speaks to me Dodie, I hope to see you live one day, much love.

Usually I try not to analyze songs, because I just like basking in the emotions I feel after listening to them. But...I dunno, this one song is so relatable, probably because the lyrics hit so hard. I think the person in this song is in a relationship - whether it be romantic or platonic - and they're fighting with their partner. A lot of tension and resentment goes unsaid between these people, and in the end, it ends up twisting the singer, making them a monster - because they end up internalizing all of that anger.
I don't know if I'm right though - I probably interpret it this way because of what I'm going through right now. But once again Dodie, these are genius lyrics!

[Verse 1]
Tell me again about how it hurts
Being awfully loud for an introvert
Get out of my room, smile wiped clean
Isn't it weird to be so mean?
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm guessing that I've grown horns
I guess I'm human no more
I can tell I've rotted in your brain
Oh, how easily passion twists
You think I'm a crazy bitch
I craft my words to fit your head
'Cause no one listens to the dead
[Chorus]
So maybe I will talk to you
The only way I know how to
Mhm, I've said my speech
Mhm, through sharpened teeth
You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin
Please let the devil in
[Verse 2]
A meter apart, we blankly stare
We shout in our heads, "Are you still in there?"
Well, this ends bad then, we knew it would
So we won't eat our words, 'cause they don't taste good
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm guessing that I've grown horns
I guess I'm human no more
I can tell I've rotted in your brain
Oh, how easily passion twists
You think I'm a crazy bitch
A thousand words are left unsaid
'Cause no one listens to the dead
[Chorus]
So maybe I will talk to you
The only way I know how to
Mhm, I've said my speech
Mhm, through sharpened teeth
You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin
Oh, I think it might be worth a try
Oh, am I ready to let this die?
Mhm, a monster's here
Mhm, you plug your ears
But hey, you might just listen to it sing
Please let the devil in
[Refrain]
We won't eat our words
They don't taste so good
We won't eat our words
They don't taste so good
[Bridge]
Look, we know that I've seen this before
High and mighty, at the top of your list
Adoring every move, now my rank is sinking
But we're both guilty of black or white thinking
And through my red eyes, you look pale
All of your scars are looking more like scales
Two ugly creatures, two sinister preachers
Blind to the past, like a couple of monsters
Just a couple of monsters
[Chorus]
So maybe I will talk to you
The only way I know how to
Mhm, you've said your speech
Mhm, through sharpened teeth
You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin
Oh, I think it might be worth a try
Oh, am I ready to let this die?
Mhm, a monster's here
Mhm, you plug your ears
But hey, you might just listen to it sing
Please let the devil in
[Refrain]
We won't eat our words
They don't taste so good
We won't eat our words
They don't taste so good
