lyrics

Wouldn’t you love to relax?
Didn’t you know that a stubborn man is too cheap
For that effecient kind of relief

This is the art of shedding our pitiful skin

Tell me it’s only a taste of self control
But the static is just as sweet
Did you prefer the blood on your teeth?

The bitterness subsides but how long should I enjoy these dead routines
As the burdens of our youth are laid before our feet

Lets face the facts
We might as well be mannequins waiting for dopamine
A headrush to stay alive

Or maybe we’re too obscene
In the way we love to fuck each other
Over and over, again and again

Cover it up with undertones
Speak with a mouthful of nails
Smiles drip with the stench of blood on your teeth

On our teeth

In a sense, it finally gets better
All I had to do was get the fuck over myself
Overpriced remedies come with those flirtatious talks with death
I’d love to feel better
Que sera whatever
Just tell me everything I wanna hear right now

Staring from the outside
A mirror distorts what’s real
I haven’t learned any god damn thing yeah

Tell me its only a taste of self control
But the static is just as sweet
Did you prefer the blood?
This is the art of embracing the blood on our teeth
