lyrics

Make up the beds of American homes
and it's sad to see our marked up necks as misfiring God impulse
We made for charming marionettes when our bodies didn't feel cursed
Through lush green and hacked out fences, we fucked if those cameras worked

And I spent my autumn feeling sick
Cause my throat don't understand the things I can't digest

Her blouse frayed
To fight through stiff necks and try not to see her skin
As easy prey and it's consequences
If our bodies could keep our blood still
To hold our innocents in
Then we could rest through moonlight and wind chimes

We pass through our parents clothes resiting lullabies in snow globes
We've been through banquets of things to worship
Tried to turn her white sheets into waving surrender flags
But all the blood stains obscure the meaning

So navigate my body as I bend to your easy will
When the things that we lean against all feel
industrious and immoral

So navigate my body as I bend to your easy will
And wake up alone.
