lyrics

And this is my reminder to stay awake
To absorb your touch that's ingrown in my flesh.
To be the one in your fantasies
To feel your body at dawn
To be the twist in your plot..

Because ready or not..
Ready or not..
Here comes the monster.
And he still dreams about you.

How quickly would you kill me
If you found that I were peeking
While you dance around the room
And glide across your basement floor?
It's full exposure at full volume all the time.
We could keep our heads in mud
And say that I'm a ghost.
Well I only thought that we would kiss
But you gut me like a fish
And my intent is on the floor
Though its harmless and insured.

So, I cut off my head
To fix my perfect teeth
And all the nerve endings sparked voluntarily.
Put me back on my bed
And splice me back together.
I was incoherent
I was safe and tethered.

Nightlight, save me.
Save me from the twilight.
Break me, take me, make me
More like her life.

This chisel to the brain
Has done me every wonder
We are back in the woods
Where I'm healthy and I'm younger.
And every bottle that was drained
Till the last fucking drop?
Well..Jesus says I'm happy
Whether I know it or not.
Yeah, Jesus thinks I'm funny
But Jesus is a liar.
