Is it me or are your hands round my throat
Someone's come to sew me shut
Someone's come to sew me shut
Is it me are you more brittle in the bones
Than the night you tore my guts
Like a sweater come undone
How dare you
How dare you
Set foot in this house again
I dare you
I'll pull every thread
Is it me or did your fingers trace my veins
So you've come to sew me shut
So you've come to sew me shut
Follow the seams where your edges start to fray
And the floor board gave you up
When they cried out under your lunge
How dare you
Break through the
Ground that I bound you to
I dare you
I'll unravel you too
I may never change the world
But atleast I'm not afraid to die
Your shadow creeps down the wall
With the clutch of a needles eye
Is it me or are you in over your threads
Now you've come to sew me shut
Now you've come to sew me shut
I still see your fallen hairs behind my bed
But this time you've come undone
But this time you've come un...

Baby, You Get Me By

Hold me so sweet
Feel my heart beat
Against your empty shell
A long corroded outline
Tender in the dark
We'll never be apart
Me and your frigid remains
Send shivers down my spine
Well it doesn't get me off
But baby it gets me by
(Ooo)
I wonder what you were like
When you were solid and still alive
Would you want me then babe
Oh would you still be mine
Ectoplasm tastes
Nothing like you'd think
But I will drink it down
Keep you cumming every night
Oh it doesn't get me off
But baby it gets me by
(Ooo) (Ooo)
I'll admit it has been quite a while
Since I've felt skin other than mine
Oh it's you, baby it's you that gets me by
It doesn't get me off
But it keeps my spirits high

Perfect Sunrise

Breathe out and in
I starve my skin
For knowing you
Three years now
I salt the ground
From which you grew
I've always been shallow
Never liked to be touched
I've always been evil
Never liked you that much
And even if its kills me
I will see the sunrise
Over every crooked house
In this town
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Bring me to the surface
Where the light meets the earth
Hold me at your center
Kiss my eyes as they burn
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Kills me this time
As above
I never knew love
But I knew you
So below
I'd madly go
To swallow you
I've always been impatient
And I've never been fine
I've always been sinful
You never seemed to mind
And even if it kills me
I will let the sunlight
Fill every porous hole
In my skin
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Bring me to my senses
I'll bring you to your knees
Kiss my scattered ashes
Let it nourish the trees
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Kills me this time
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Kills me this time
This might be the perfect sunrise
This might be the perfect sunrise
This might be the perfect sunrise
This might be...
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Oh god I hope it kills me this time
Bring me to the surface
Surround me with nine blades
Hold me at you center
Kiss my lips as they say
Oh god I hope it kills me this time

You can keep me in your box of bones
Like a wounded bird you found while walking home
I'm peeling layer by layer off the wall
Where did the sunlight go
When did the threshold fall
And I'm so lonely
I'm so lonely
That I could almost settle for you
Yea I'm so lonely
You're feeling lonely too
You can keep me in your plastic bag
Make a vacuum in my throat
I'll try not to gag
At your drawn-on smile or your X's for eyes
When you say "I am yours, love,
Would you be mine?"
And I'm so broken
I'm so broken
That I could almost settle for you
Yea I'm so broken
You're feeling broken too
Darling tell me
Oh darling tell me
When do I see my family again?
Cuz I'm so lonely
And you're my only friend
Ain't it fucked up
That I'm so fucked up
That I could almost settle for you
I'm so lonely
At least you're lonely too
