Dear Miss White
|
Put down this night
|
Wouldn't believe how much it snows
|
In the summer heat
|
With red iron feet
|
You'll be nursing a bloody nose
|
|
Princess, rest.
|
We'll talk in our sleep
|
But I wouldn't dare to sit too close
|
I can't be your Prince
|
Though your secrets are safe
|
I am the mirror that can't let go
|
|
With hair as black as night
|
Her skin, a dead, pearly white
|
And the red on the bathroom wall
|
|
With every breath
|
And every intake
|
Tip-toe further away
|
Further away from his mistakes
|
I'm no savior; I'm no saint, saint
|
It's not what you needed anyway
|
All the cold that you've caught
|
The bones that you brought
|
The blood that you've lost
|
You built your body in the coffin where you sleep
|
|
Let this apartment breathe
|
'Cause its what it needs
|
I'm suffocating the clock to keep you
|
I think like a saint
|
But swing like a thief
|
And inadvertently leading you
|
To believe I'm your prince
|
And go in your bedroom with hits
|
Take the red from your eyes
|
And ink it into your skin
|
Now watch what you say
|
ĄŻcause there's nothing gray
|
About the color of your skin
|
|
With hair as black as night
|
Her skin, a dead, pearly white
|
And the red on the bathroom wall
|
|
With every breath
|
And every intake
|
Tip-toe further away
|
Further away from his mistakes
|
I'm no savior; I'm no saint, saint
|
It's not what you needed anyway
|
All the cold that you've caught
|
The bones that you brought
|
The blood that you've lost
|
You built your body in the coffin where you sleep
|
|
(A fix, just a little bit.
|
Give the girl enough to sleep through this.
|
So, stop staring at the mirror
|
give the girl enough to sleep though
|
Stop staring at the mirror
|
Before it tells you the truth
|
Operate, operate, operate, or itĄŻll kill you too.)
|
|
With every breath
|
And every intake
|
Tip-toe further away
|
You're bleeding, your bloodshot
|
Tired mistake
|
I'm no savior; I'm no saint, saint
|
You need to see the pieces you've thrown away
|
All the cold that you've caught
|
The bones that you brought
|
The blood that you've lost
|
Keep your body
|
Get hell away from me.
