Lyrics

Take me down Where the baptized drown So they say (Surface dweller shallow swimmer) Let's lick my wounds So they say I killed a man So they say I took his head So they say he was a scourge And all the world are his children The best thing they ever did in this life was let me live Digging swiftly out of Hell, madness helps me save myself Crooked spoons on every wall, genocide lines the hall Ten gauge needles and a prayer Smearing sin everywhere What else could you need? You've taken everything What else could you need? You've taken everything (Surface dweller, shallow swimmer) Let's lick my wounds We feed until we're engorged Let them sleep, I need some more Nooses made of human hair, bodies falling from thin air We speak and preach forbidden truth This is it, we're through with you I'm choosing to lose my mind Rape the blade and call it wine Crooked spoons on every wall, genocide lines the hall Ten gauge needles and a prayer Smearing sin everywhere What else could you need? You've taken everything What else could you need? You've taken everything (Surface dweller shallow swimmer) Take me where the baptized drown I sleep too deep for you to wake me I sleep too deep for you to wake me I sleep too deep for you You'll never wake me My lips are kissed with tiny stitches What else could you need? You've taken everything What else could you need? You've taken everything The venom that slips from your lips The tiny lies, shining in your eyes Pain in my veins Shallow, hallow, incarcerated Soul I sleep too deep for you to wake me up
