lyrics
I was looking for the chord
To the hearts of all the dead boys
Their hands still clutching razor blades—
Bleeding on the floor
Which was covered in their blood
Though there wasn’t quite enough
To spill out all of their organs
And then spell out the word love
And though I can’t because I’m golden
I could try and spell it for them
Dip my fingers in like ink
Wash my hands out in a sink
After scattering their body parts,
Their insides looked like strings
There were markers in the dirt
Now their souls are in the earth
Now their souls belong to god
And I can’t kill him in return
Because love is an object
And I don’t cry because I’m golden
I destroy, never protect
And our love is an object
Dig a bed for me in dirt
Put my body in the earth
Cry a river for the worms
Then deliver me from birth
Dig a bed for me in dirt
Put my body in the earth
Wash my hands with all the worms
Then deliver me from birth
Cut a hole into the sky
Pull me in and make me die
In my dreams where I’m alive
Please destroy me in the sky
Oh destroyer in the sky
Pull me in and make me die
In my dreams where I’m alive
Please destroy me in the sky
Dig a bed for me in dirt
Put my body in the earth
Cry a river for the worms
Then deliver me from birth
Oh destroyer in the sky
Please destroy me in the sky
In my dreams I’m still alive
God, it just sounds so HUGE. Luckily they have the songwriting chops to go along with that power, so this stays interesting throughout, rather than devolving into pure tone worship. MetalDipshit
