Tripping over dimes spinning on the ground
A scratching post for my kiss
Tightened bows and ties spin me round and round
It brings and end to my bliss
Dip into the sand, die, and think about
a withered belt of flowers
Wish they wouldn't come try to find me out
No darkness to devour
CHORUS
My mantis sings a line
He wants another day
His sad depicted sign
is what kept her away
Praise a dying face when its all I've got
I'm broken, but deserve it
I'm gonna find a way to use what I'm taught
Before I try to lose it
Ring me out again when I change my mind
Your subtlety is envied
Chased you all away 'cause I fell behind
It's hard to make an enemy
(CHORUS)
When I ponder what I've got, they'll come to steal it
When I run from what I'm not, my wounds will heal it
So when you think I've gone away, it's 'cause I've left you
For when the night will rape the day, it's 'cause it's supposed to
"They're all pretend."
It's fun to say
(CHORUS)
