lyrics

(Verse)
I woke up sick again,
Canker sores, wisdom teeth, bleeding gums and a fever head,
So I went to the hospital chair,
White rooms, packaged blood, long lines and the TV glare,
They're always the same
What's your ype? Where is your blood?
Are you caught? Will you clot?
Or is it in your head?

(Chorus)
But I've got melting eyes,
a sweating neck, bumpy skin, a piercing back and yellow bones.
and that's just the start,
Believe it when I say that
The truth is my intent but I swallow it all back down,
There's flies hangin' round' my mouth

(Verse)
I gasped when I saw her there,
Lizard eyes, leeching love, a murder with a model stare,
They talk but I just don't care,
What's your plot? Where's your spine?
Are you alive? Are you even there?

Chorus
But I've got melting eyes,
a sweating neck, bumpy skin, a piercing back and yellow bones.
and that's just the start,
Believe it when I say that
The truth is my intent but I swallow it all back down,
There's flies hangin' round' my mouth
