Lyrics

I'm made of hair and bone and little teeth

I am composed of hair, bone, and small teeth.

And think I cannot speak

It seems like I cannot express myself verbally.

I come on like a crippled plaything

I present myself as a damaged or disabled plaything.

My spine is just a string

My spine is fragile, like a string.

I wrapped our love in all this foil

I covered our love with foil, tightly like spider legs.

Silver tight like spider legs

Intending to preserve it, but insects will contaminate it.

I never wanted it to ever spoil

I never wished for our love to decay.

But flies will lay there eggs.

However, flies will lay their eggs, causing decay.


Take your hatred out on me

Direct your hatred towards me.

Make your victim my head

Make me the target of your anger.

You never ever believed in me

You never believed in me at all.

I am your tourniquet

I am your tourniquet, providing relief or escape.


Prosthetic synthesis and butterfly

Artificial creation and delicate like a butterfly.

Sealed up with virgin stitch.

Sealed with pure or untouched stitches.

If it hurts baby please don't cry

If it causes pain, please don't cry.

Preserve my innocence

Preserve my innocence despite the pain.


I never wanted it end this way

I never wanted our relationship to conclude this way.

But flies will lay there eggs

Yet, insects will still contaminate it.

Take your hatred out on me

Direct your hatred towards me.

Make your victim my head

Make me the target of your anger.

You never ever believed in me

You never believed in me at all.

I am your tourniquet

I am your tourniquet, providing relief or escape.


What I wanted

Expressing desires and needs.

What I needed

What I wanted.

I tried to get for me

What I needed.

Nothing wanted

I attempted to obtain for myself.

Nothing needed

Nothing is freely given.

No one comes for free

No one comes without a cost.


Take your hatred out on me

Direct your hatred towards me.

Make your victim my head

Make me the target of your anger.

You never ever believed in me

You never believed in me at all.

I am your tourniquet

I am your tourniquet, providing relief or escape.

You never ever believed in me

You never believed in me at all.

You never ever believed

You never believed.

You never ever believed in me

You never believed in me at all.

You never ever believe

You never believed.
