lyrics

THE BLOOD RED RIBBON ON YOUR COAT
INDICATIVE OF WHERE YOU THOUGHT YOU MIGHT GO
BUT THE SNOW THAT LANDED ON YOUR EYE
IS TOO FUCKING COLD

THAT BLACK PLASTIC’S SINGING LOUD
KEEP THE CHANGE AS YOU HEAR HIM WALK OUT
THE IRIS FIRE POISED, STARING YOU DOWN
CAN’T BE PUT OUT


PURPLE EYES AND WASTED BREATH
THE MOST EXPENSIVE CIGARETTE
YOU SMOKE ON YOUR WAY HOME
PINCH YOURSELF TO KNOW YOUR WORTH
JUST BECAUSE IT BLEEDS DON’T MEAN IT HURTS
BESIDES THEY’RE ONLY WORDS


THE WINGED NIGHTINGALE TAKES FLIGHT
BUT DOESN’T SING JUST DISSOLVES INTO THE NIGHT
AND PRESSES ON WITH SOFT INTERNAL SPEECH
I’LL BE ALRIGHT

MALEVOLENT HANDS SEDUCE THE SOUL
BUT WITH EACH KISS COMES ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE WHOLE
THE IRIS FIRE NOW KEEPING YOU WARM
WITH A HEART TO HOLD
