lyrics

Polyps on my chords — screaming out these words I fear. No one is listening.
Bar my sensories (prisoner who seeks safety — siren seduction, sans sanity) at least in the shallow shadows of the night. Oh, these beasts cast me into the light where the other soldiers waste away waiting. Frozen bones that leave me shakin'. Oh, I'm shaken.

I'll take your Ferro Roscher in exchange for my blue Bottle Pop. As we consume each other's, time seems to stop upon our clocks. But as we age — and once your blue tongue fades — I will only know you by the reflection of myself in your eyes.

Let the black ink sink. Cranial suicide. Warpaint (streaming down my leaning down cheekbones) drenching binder paper you'll never get to read. So just listen.

Lights flickering in and out. Chalk outlines on my couch — these sunken cushions cradle doubt. I'm freezing up inside my house. And where are you to turn up the heat? I wish I learned to live independently.

So I'll take your Ferro Roscher in exchange for my blue Bottle Pop. As we consume each other's, time seems to stop upon our clocks. But as we age — and once your blue tongue fades — I will only know you by the reflection of myself in your eyes.
Will I ever really know you or can I only ever know me? I will never truly know you.

Life's just a journey to get to know me.
