lyrics

Sink your teeth in them reveries love
Go on, eat your heart out, it never seems enough
Taste copper on your tongue, love, paint them lips red, taste those evenings on the floor
Coiled up and eviscerated, and gnawed down to the core

When you hunt me, do you aim true?
Or do your weapons pierce whatever meat finds you?
There’s slivers in my eardrums, whispering through and through, — whisp’ring truth
like honey, tastes sweet like viscous youth

I’d like a peep hole through your chest
So that I might see that which you will defend
Take silver for them reveries, silver for your decadence
Go on, eat my heart too, oh hungry man

When you hunt me, do you aim true?
Or do your weapons pierce whatever meat finds you?
There’s slivers in my eardrums, whispering through and through, — whisp’ring truth
like honey, tastes sweet like viscous youth

Oh, collector of secrets
You hide jagged teeth behind them red paint lips
In spite of witnesses,
In spite of yourself destroy, that which you would defend

When you hunt me, do you aim true?
Or do your weapons pierce whatever meat finds you?
There’s slivers in my eardrums, whispering through and through, — whisp’ring truth
like honey, tastes sweet like viscous youth
