lyrics

I'd like to wash my hands over every hurt
and all the sleep I've lost over it
underneath a light of golden coils,
vow to grow my hair so I can bind it back.
give me a song that will sound louder than a whipcrack

Treat me like a book of good design
piled high in another house that I don't own
treat me like I’m not the same face
with paths of crowsfeet in fresh snow
give me a song that will sting sharper than a whipcrack

I put new seed in the earth
watch me try to dance Pavanne
listen as a try to sing to Faure
watch my old self bleed in the dust

soon can't come soon enough
watch my old self bleed in the dust
soon can't come soon enough
watch my old self bleed in the dust
