lyrics

Prance
Prance
Prancing around
As if your suffering somehow makes you special
You revel in your uselessness
Dejection and despondency

Tongue as a welcome mat
Molestation
Milk and blood from the nips
Ouch that smarts
Just flip me off and call me Mary

He prays
To not be Number Six
Sloppy seconds
Roof comes down to a crush
Climax interrupted
Splintered rib bones
Vital organs punctured

I always find you too late
Already in any state of decay
Or with parts of your body
Missing or mutilated
You always act as if everything is fine regardless
As if an act of spite
And I have to experience your death
Over and over
Again and again
What is that

We sit on the hill and feel the ants crawling over our backs
They're on a set path regardless of sweaty motionless obstacles
Sudden inexplicable sadness
Caused by dripping
Golden
Honey

Grotesque is what you are
They'll always keep reminding you
Nuzzling of beards and
Tweezers removing tiny grey hairs

You're allowing those things to keep growing on your body
Because you're scared
Complacent
Apathetic
And low-key just want to die

Careful
We've got another case of
Liquid Plastic Squirting Out Of Every Orifice

Break out the cliche of being too broken to save
A smell of sulphur manifests
A rush of wind up the stairs
Why do you keep inviting him?
Why?
Why?
Why?
