lyrics

ripped from their beds
the newspapers blankets
scattered in a mess
don't blame yourself
just blame the weather
a good samaritan

who are you? what are you?

lets laminate
these dirty dishes and
hang them on the wall
would you litter your soul
if nobody noticed
just to hold your own

who are you? what are you?

how far will craved mouths wander
in the burial grounds?
see how your paws turn into
casket ladles

I just wanna go, fishing
either this or drown

whose in command?
and are you my leader?
the podiums up for grabs
well this is my life, but this is your body
what if nothing's left?

who are you? what are you? Is it food?

How far will craved mouths wander
In the burial grounds?
See how your paws turn into
Casket ladles

I just wanna go, fishing
Even if I drown

I wrote a letter to myself
and signed it, "how are you my friend?
this life is difficult, I understand your pain,
but it's coming back, it's coming back
how do you sleep at night?"
