A Lament For Violet

from A Shrine 2 Create by Tom Hymn

/

lyrics

I damn all your hidden powers
The ones you used on me
Supercomputer in the sky
You brainwashed me
Mark of the Beast

I damn all your honest smiles
Not afraid to show those pearlies
I'll call all my crocodiles
They need to eat too
And they eat teeth

Goddamn all you easy lovers
You ones who so easily love
Where do you get off with hearts like that?
I get off too
But not like that

I damn all the highs and the lows
The ones you speak at dinner
It's too vulnerable for me
When I eat I eat
When I'm washing dishes I'm washing the dishes

I gave you a plant for your birthday
Cause that's what good friends do
When it died, like a knife
Cut and bled me through
My voice is damned now too
