From the recording Melancholia
Lyrics
Keep quiet, or else your mother'll hear us from her room
Stay silent, and your father will wake to find us gone
We've slipped into the night
Our given single lives --
I say we spend them right
By doing whatever we'd like
Stop stalling before luminescence sends you to sleep
Our secret until the morning comes to drive away
This never-ending pain
If only for today
I'd hold you in my arms,
And everything would be okay
I want to change everything about myself (I want to change -- but how?)
Nine lashes -- one for every hour spent 'way from home
Surprises in the form of scarification, so
Imagined hurt's made real,
Helps control how you feel,
And if there is a God,
Before me it will have to kneel
I want to change everything about myself (I want to change -- but how?)
I want to change everything about myself (Sober up already)
Keep quiet...
