lyrics

The mythology of madness
The biology of sadness
A philosophy in practice
Left my love, left my love

Pricked my tongue on a cactus
Left my love on a mattress

Burnt holes in nylons
Melted blood in bronze
I counted my fears
Collected my tears
I smothered and smeared my name
And it amounted to nothing
At all

There’s honesty in malice
There’s modesty in blackness
A philosophy in practice
Left my love, left my love

Replaced my bones with plastic
Left my love on a mattress

Burnt holes in nylons
Melted blood in bronze
I counted my fears
Collected my tears
I smothered and smeared my name
And it amounted to nothing
At all

I don’t know why I ever thought to try
I don’t know why I ever thought to try
But it doesn’t seem to matter
it doesn’t seem to matter

I don’t know why I never thought to try
I don’t know why I never thought to try
But it doesn’t seem to matter
It doesn’t seem to matter

I grew something from my head
It grew and grew until I was dead
It crawled it’s way through my brain
Crawled down my spine and through my veins

Dreadful flowers raining down
Reaching for the cold, cold ground
Withered rotten little leaves
Collect around my feet

I grew something from my head
I grew something from my head
It grew until I was dead
