The Figurehead

歌詞

Sharp and open - Leave me alone And sleeping less every night As the days become heavier and weighted Waiting in the cold light A noise, a scream tears my clothes, As the figurines tighten w/ spiders inside them And dust on the lips of a vision of Hell I laughed in the mirror for the first time in a year A hundred other words blind me with your purity Like an old painted doll in the throes of dance I think about tomorrow Please let me sleep, as I slip down the window Freshly squashed fly - You mean nothing, (x2) I can lose myself in Chinese art & American girls All the time - Lose me in the dark Please do it right - Run into the night I will lose myself tomorrow - Crimson pain My heart explodes - My memory in a fire & someone will listen, at least for a short while I can never say no to anyone but you... Too many secrets - Too many lies Writhing with hatred Too many secrets - Please make it good tonight But the same image haunts me in sequence In despair of time I will never be clean again I touched her eyes - Pressed my stained face I will never be clean again Touch her eyes - Press my stained face I will never be clean again (x4)
