I can taste the blood on your lips and on your tongue
|
I can see your teeth turned pink, your gums fade to white
|
|
The less and less I eat the more you see my teeth
|
The closer they move together, fill the gaps, curse the weather
|
Rip the flesh from your bones, wipe me down, drive me home
|
Dump me side of the road if I'm too annoying
|
|
Wear your best suit, all these people are watching
|
Oh baby, you'll need all those fingers for crossing
|
I'm sucking your last words from the back of your throat
|
So perfect, so bitter, we laugh then we choke
|
|
Wear your best suit, all these people are watching
|
Oh baby, you'll need all those fingers for crossing
|
I'm sucking your last words from the back of your throat
|
So perfect, so bitter, we laugh then we choke
|
You worry a million raindrops'll die
|
With the last memory of you and I
|
In a soft porn version of the end of the world
|
I quake at the knees as my intentions unfurl
|
|
You wrote a letter to God just in case
|
You said I'm nothing if I'm not a pragmatist
|
You needn't worry about us, we can look after ourselves
|
We have enough to rely on you or anyone else
|
|
Wear your best suit, all these people are watching
|
Oh baby, you'll need all those fingers for crossing
|
I'm sucking your last words from the back of your throat
|
So perfect, so bitter, we laugh then we choke
|
|
Wear your best suit, all these people are watching
|
Oh baby, you'll need all those fingers for crossing
|
I'm sucking your last words from the back of your throat
|
So perfect, so bitter, we laugh then we choke
|
