lyrics

Ask do you like flowers pressed into pages crumbling as they die
Memories to be read, one's soon to forget for a new life
Show me something brown that people won't fight
Give me a thing to love so I can tragically die

It's time to help me figure me out
It's time to give me more hope and less doubt

All the pretty things to behold
All the beautiful people being bought and sold
Leave me here so I can collect dust

I'm done eating now, time to shrivel and die
I'd like to cut my tongue out, I want to sew my mouth up
No more thinking these thoughts are getting anywhere
You said you are done forgiving, no more time for giving

I'd like to get at someone just as fucked up as me
Maybe we can punch each other in the same place
Will you be more?
I don't want another prayer to say

I won't touch precious things
Cancel my own body
Don't take, don't touch
Can't be my own body
All the people the smile
with broken mouths
Don't take, don't touch
My body
That smile will show me less doubt
Can't be my own body
