Lyrics

Your grief is silent
But shines like a diamond in infrared
Your flesh is a fresh piss yellow like a newborn alcoholic
Baptism in the liver, communion in the coming jaundice
The abandonment hurts so bad
The rejection and neglect
It makes you want to irradiate all the ground beneath our feet
Fuck everyone you know beyond hope, obsolete
When your pain has been nothing but quiet, polite, and so meek
So death will be anything but it
And you're all gonna see
And how
And how
You'll cut the disappointment off your body one wound at a time
Into the arms, the bodily harm, your blood is a fine red wine
In your lying lips, your saggy tits, your needle dick, neglected clit
Hardened by loss, but still so soft
The knifepoint slides right in
And I don't care
I never cared
The anguish might be new to you, but you can't compare
Cuz you weren't there
During the normal years
I fucked all the golden years
Snorting coke and quarts of beer
Cuz it was there
While you were playing with your prick
And discovering you're queer
Like detritus from a plane wreck
I was there
Like detritus from a plane wreck
Shredded bodies of passengers still fastened to their seat
Wardrobe burned and torn to expose your overcooked pussy
All the sexy parts destroyed, oh now what's the fuckin' point
I suppose you could fuck all the corpses, but where is the joy
You'll get used to it
Abuse is cute like that
And there's a solution
But you're not gonna like it
While you're floating such empty promises out from your broken soul
Tell me you'll take your own life for the love of the rock and the love of the roll
They won't believe you
And neither will I
Because from what I can surmise
They only care about you when you die
Die
Until then I suffer in sewers
And pine for the unattainable
My conflated version of perfection
No matter how unstable
I know that you talk about me
But never straight to me
I know that you're thinking about me
But you never come out and find me
But it's alright
You're better to not see
Oh how I loved your false sense of supremacy
Because if you could believe in such abhorrent disbeliefs
Then it meant, maybe, just maybe
You could believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
