lyrics

Time to face the crowd again
You are not my vision or my friend
All the fallen leaves
Are the last things that I see
Passing through your living room to die

Run me a warm bath to fall asleep
To shut it all away
To shut it
Pull down the blinds to keep out the haunted moon

You are not the thing I thought I loved
I'm hugging a bank of cold razors
(Now I am only asleep on the edge of the Earth)
And all your stinking friends
With their black roots in the ground
You crawled into my chest, curled there to die

You do not know it
But you are nestled in the wet slit of my heart
Death rolling
Teaching me pain

Take your time, unbutton my shirt
I'll steal your breath away, I'll steal your breath away
You picked me up and put me in your car
Before the water came, and took the town away
Take me to the sea
Leave your latent prints on me
I'll show you all the love that's left inside
You are the fruit that keeps me from going lame
