Lyrics

Sharp and open, leave me alone
 And sleeping less every night
 As the days become heavier and weighted
 Waiting in the cold light
 A noise, a scream tears my clothes as the figurines tighten
 With spiders inside them and dust on the lips of a vision of hell
 I laughed in the mirror for the first time in a year
 ♪
 A hundred other words blind me with your purity
 Like an old painted doll in the throes of dance
 I think about tomorrow, please let me sleep
 As I slip down the window
 Freshly squashed fly
 You mean nothing
 You mean nothing
 ♪
 I can lose myself in Chinese art and American girls
 All the time, lose me in the dark
 Please do it right
 Run into the night
 I will lose myself tomorrow
 Crimson pain, my heart explodes
 My memory in a fire, and someone will listen
 At least for a short while
 ♪
 (I can never say no)
 I can never say no to anyone but you
 ♪
 Too many secrets, too many lies
 Writhing with hatred
 Too many secrets, please make it good tonight
 But the same image haunts me, in sequence, despair of time
 I will never be clean again
 Touched her eyes, pressed my stained face
 I will never be clean again
 Touched her eyes, pressed my stained face
 I will never be clean again
 ♪
 I will never be clean again
 ♪
 I will never be clean again
 ♪
 I will never be clean again
