lyrics

it’s like a holy kind of dream i had
in the bathroom at the sink in lovesick hymn
the colours of the creams all match
and i can feel the nails defeat the skin
the most beautiful of shapes
oh well i can live the plastic / pure state
all the effort that you make
just so i can live the plastic / pure state

i am alive, i am possessed
i’m an insect rising up your neck
i won’t allow you any rest
you’re a princess in that red-check dress
i love it when you scream
anchored to the porcelain
it’s everything i need
thrust before me once again

let it all line up
you know me best
give over to a holy sweat
everything is obvious
as I become
as I become
return of the fiend again
the one who laughs
the one who knocks
you can have him anytime you like

girl in lace
bursting at the seams
you’re what i was promised, what i keep
for real
you know my ways
how everything i see
is turning into meat and packaging
but you’re still here
