used to be clean
now i’m filthy as can be
scrubbing off every spot
used to be mean
now i’m good as can be
brace me up
i’m your slut
may the god of me protect my soul
as i stay a little while longer
in this dusty rabbit hole
to sing my song chained onto your bed
used to be told
my silence is gold
coughing up every drop
used to give small
now i’m granting you all
stepping up
i’m your slut
may the god of me protect my soul
as i stay a little while longer
in this dusty rabbit hole
to sing my song chained onto your bed
used to be clean
now i'm filthy as can be

i thought i felt a spark
i thought i saw a flame
then something changed in you
who took the blame
my plan was foolproof
as i became the fortress of your heart
love, the kind that kills and scars
will make you kneel and crawl to hell and back
the words that slit your throat
and make you think of love as the new black
as what you lack
love
the sound of letting go
the sight of youth
that we all set aside
when the world was new
under the full moon
only endless rain
and absence of your heart
love, the kind that kills and scars
will make you kneel and crawl to hell and back
the words that slit your throat
and make you think of love as the new black
as what you lack
love

a backwards march
my back against
meadows of fear
where it all began
and there’s a hunt
for they seek the whom
and the purest of hearts
let their spirits be consumed
there’s a new world laid at your feet
we build an army from nothing
we raise our children to the beat
of its comforting pounding
a forward talk
solely against
old ways and means
we’re not like them, nesu
i’m on a hunt
to find the cure
and before i depart into the deepest blue
behind all insecurity
there is a wall of assurance
she is her own worst enemy
she fights her battles for no one
there’s a new world laid at your feet
we build an army from nothing
we raise our children to the beat
of its comforting pounding
let it sink in for a new beginning
you know better now
water fills her lungs and she’s inhaling
you feel better now
underneath the stars her body sinking
you do better now
a heavy sigh then not a sound
we have no lives to sacrifice
she makes us sing
dampens the cries
if there’s a want
for something new
you might find me at the start
or where it ends for you
let it sink in for a new beginning
you know better now
water fills her lungs and she’s inhaling
you feel better now
underneath the stars her body sinking
you do better now
a heavy sigh then not a sound

there it was the land of decay
we should pack our things and run away
rest in the quick sand
shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand
sink slowly, not take flight
let silence take us at daylight
take a deep breath as we go, as we go
wanting higher
wanting higher up
wanting higher
’til morning forces us to climb back down
i’d rather stay, i’d rather let us drown
what a harsh, unpleasant hello
the paranoia i’ve learned to live with, although
i will never shake what’s there behind
your songs are still playing in my mind
all that white only turns you blue
look after me and i’ll look after you
take a deep breath as we go, as we go

i never dreamt i’d meet someone like you
all unwanted features build the unity of you
but i like you
you see the overall of what we are
is it a sad, sad sight viewed from afar?
why don’t you call?
whatever made you into clump like you
the icing cold that leaks out through cracks of you
makes us as new
whatever made you seem so very small
are you tiny in real life but large in thought?
who’s standing tall
cannot wait until i get my hands on you
we can do the things we said we would
you never had a true friend like i
someone to pick you up when you needed to
be carried through
if my hands weren’t so very sharp
this broken glass that surrounds wherever we are
wouldn’t do us part
whatever made you into clump like you
the fiery warmth that reeks out from miles of you
is burning through
whatever made you seem so very small
are you in real life but large in thought?
come stand up tall
cannot wait until i get my hands on you
we can do the things we said we would
cannot wait until i see your smiling faces
and our love
will be misunderstood
