lyrics

Will no-one try and save me
Will no-one try and save me
Dressed like this
Hips like these
Please

Eyes, my eyes, my eyes
I need them, to follow me, wherever I go
Every step I take, forever
Teeth, my teeth
Tease syllables, paragraphs, intervals
That haunt me
And hearing where my voice lies destroys me

Do you ever feel like laying your bones out on the cold bathroom tiles
Isn't it hard to sleep
With angels screaming
Their eyes snap right onto me
Crooked smiles

They want to put me in fire
Dry bones, vapour, ashes
They want to watch as I die
Chanting, vision dances
See colour bleed from my eyes
Within disturbing trances
I’m feeling weak and only Percocet will help me sleep

She takes you by the hand
You want to die again
Breathing like a man
Then just for a second
You figure it out
Floating from the ground
Its in the inflection, choking you out
What thin protection you have now
Your pretty projection, does not fuck around
The alienation
Has strangled you down
