its been said
that a scar you forgot disappears
its nothing to fear
seeking it out is it here
on your head
is it gone
well where does it hurt
its out of the question
kick it onto the road
its a shame and its past
still its kicking your ass
til i stick the needle in
stick the needle in
hide in the rocks
for the night
frozen lake
when u thaw
would we sink
crawling out of the waves
are your arms weak
is it heartache
its a prank
we all fall inside
now its taking possession
like something out of a dream
if it leads to arrests
you can put it to bed
so i stick the needle in
stick the needle in
fast in your car
you can see in the dark
well all right
making shapes with my hands
digging holes in the sand
well all right
the body will crumble
and turn into ash
the spirit released
will do as i ask
i send it
tell your lie
start to believe it
you're a shell game
there's a tell tale heart
in the ceiling
its thundering beat
calls your name
do you listen while
it turns your home
into a prison
tear up the floorboards
hack at the walls
down to the studs
what do you find
ribbons of flesh
collect into a form you recognize
your eyes are staring back at you
your sins written out on a scroll
that reaches the floor
