lyrics

Born to lose
A prophetic tattoo
An animal in a zoo
You won’t get out anytime soon

Dead eyes and a mouth that can’t be cleaned
I can only imagine where that dirty mouth is when it’s not on me

Animals know not what they do

Dead Eyes, why such vulgarity?
I often imagine drowning in your skin
Exactly where you end and my faults begin
