lyrics

the last victim wasn’t declared a murder
they’ve got nothing in the evidence folder
i can see him peeking over your shoulder
he doesn’t know what i can see inside the blacks of your eyes.
you can’t help it but he still lives inside you
you made a deal with a new devil. you had to
not much an option, took the money and high tailed
the roses on the wall, they told you everything you should know

so far from me,
impossibly
at night you weep
incessantly

if that is what you need then it’s between you and me
put the rose in my teeth and i won’t say a thing
do you feel anything when you’re looking at me?
i can’t tell what i feel almost constantly

everybody knows, but nobody tells you
so you’re just stranded, and you don’t know what to do
there’s a pendulum that’s hanging above you
and every hour, by the hour, it drops down by an inch
and the funny thing is, that doesn’t scare you.
it was gonna catch up with you, it had to.
you had options, you knew it wasn’t harmless.
don’t deserve it. couldn’t stop it if i tried to. i know.

“keep your eyes watching me
go by,” you say to me
put the rose in my teeth, and i won’t say a thing
do you feel anything when you’re looking at me?
i can’t tell what i feel almost constantly
