Lyrics
I found the center of fruit is late
it is the center of truth today
cut the apple in two
oh, I pray it isn't true
I've got something you can never eat
I drained my heart and burn my soul
I trained the core to stop my growth
I pray to die in space
to cover me in snow
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too
cover me in snow
I'm dying, I hope you're dying too
Take this from me (hate me, hate me)
1, 2, 3, he is a speed bump mannequin
1, 2, 3, he can't move just stand still
I've got something you can never eat
